130The opening of Thy words enlighteneth, Instructing the simple.
131My mouth I have opened, yea, I pant, For, for Thy commands I have longed.
132Look unto me, and favour me, As customary to those loving Thy name.
133My steps establish by Thy saying, And any iniquity doth not rule over me.
134Ransom me from the oppression of man, And I observe Thy precepts,
135Thy face cause to shine on Thy servant, And teach me Thy statutes.
136Rivulets of waters have come down mine eyes, Because they have not kept Thy law!
137Tzade. Righteous art Thou, O Jehovah, And upright are Thy judgments.
138Thou hast appointed Thy testimonies, Righteous and exceeding faithful,
139Cut me off hath my zeal, For mine adversaries forgot Thy words.
140Tried is thy saying exceedingly, And Thy servant hath loved it.
