Psalms 119:129-173

¹²⁹◄Your requirements are/All the things that you have instructed us to do are► wonderful, so I obey them with all my inner being.

¹³⁰When someone explains ◄your words/what you have said►, it is as though they are lighting a light; what they say causes even people who have not learned your laws to be wise.

¹³¹I eagerly desire to know ◄your commands/what you have commanded►, like SIM a dog that pants with its mouth open wanting to be fed.

¹³²Listen to me and act kindly to me, like you do to all those who love you MTY.

¹³³Guide me as you promised/said that you would do and help me not to fall/sin; do not allow evil people to control what I do.

¹³⁴Rescue/Save me from those who oppress me in order that I may obey ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

¹³⁵Be kind to me and teach me ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do►.

¹³⁶I cry very much because many people do not obey your laws.

¹³⁷Yahweh, you are righteous and ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us► are just/fair.

¹³⁸◄Your requirements/All the things that you have instructed us to do► are true and are all very right and fair.

¹³⁹I am ◄furious/very angry► because my enemies disregard ◄your words/what you have told us to do►.

¹⁴⁰◄Your promises are/All the things that you have said that you will do are► dependable and I love them.

¹⁴¹I am not important and people despise me, but I do not forget ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

¹⁴²You are righteous and you will be righteous forever, and your laws will never be changed.

¹⁴³I constantly have troubles/difficulties and I am worried, but ◄your commands cause/what you have commanded causes► me to be happy.

¹⁴⁴◄Your requirements are/All the things that you have instructed us to do are► always fair; help me to understand them in order that I may continue to live.

¹⁴⁵Yahweh, with all my inner being I call out to you; answer me and I will obey ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do►.

¹⁴⁶I call out to you; save/rescue me in order that I can continue to obey all ◄your requirements/the things that you have instructed us to do►.

¹⁴⁷Each morning I arise before dawn and call to you to help me; I confidently expect you to do what you have ◄promised/said that you will do►.

¹⁴⁸All during the night I am awake, and I ◄meditate on/think about► what you have ◄promised/said that you would do►.

¹⁴⁹Yahweh, because you faithfully love me, listen to me while I pray, and keep me safe because of my obeying ◄your regulations/what you have told us to do►.

¹⁵⁰Those evil people who oppress/persecute me are coming closer to me; they do not pay any attention to your laws.

¹⁵¹But Yahweh, you are near to me, and I know that ◄your commands/what you command► will never be changed.

¹⁵²Long ago I found out about ◄your requirements/all the things that you have instructed us to do►, and I know that you intended them to last forever.

¹⁵³Look at me and see that I am suffering very much, and heal me, because I do not forget your laws.

¹⁵⁴Defend me when others accuse me, and rescue me from them; allow me to continue to live, as you promised/said that you would.

¹⁵⁵Wicked people do not obey ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do►, so you will certainly not save them.

¹⁵⁶Yahweh, you are very merciful; allow me to continue to live because of my obeying ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us►.

¹⁵⁷Many people are my enemies and many people ◄cause me to suffer/persecute me►, but I ◄do not turn aside from/have not stopped obeying► LIT ◄your requirements/what you have instructed us to do►.

¹⁵⁸When I look at those who are not faithful to you, I am disgusted because they do not obey ◄your requirements/what you have instructed us to do►.

¹⁵⁹Yahweh, notice that I love ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►; because you faithfully love me, allow me to continue to live.

¹⁶⁰All that you have said is truth, and all ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us► will endure forever.

¹⁶¹Rulers persecute me for no reason, but in my inner being I revere ◄your words/what you have said►.

¹⁶²I am happy about ◄your words/what you have promised to do for me►, as happy as someone who has found a great treasure.

¹⁶³I thoroughly hate DOU all lies but I love your laws.

¹⁶⁴Seven/Many times each day I thank you for ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us►, and they are all just/fair.
