131I opened my mouth wide and panted; for I longed for thy commandments.
132Turn unto me, and be gracious unto me, as thou art wont to do unto those that love thy name.
133Establish my steps in thy *word; and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
134Deliver me from the oppression of man; and I will keep thy precepts.
135Make thy face to shine upon thy servant, and teach me thy statutes.
136Mine eyes run down with streams of water, because they keep not thy law.
137TZADE. Righteous art thou, Jehovah, and upright are thy judgments.
138Thou hast commanded thy testimonies in righteousness and exceeding faithfulness.
139My zeal destroyeth me, because mine oppressors have forgotten thy words.
140Thy *word is exceeding pure, and thy servant loveth it.
141I am little and despised: thy precepts have I not forgotten.
142Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is truth.
143Trouble and anguish have taken hold upon me: thy commandments are my delights.
144The righteousness of thy testimonies is for ever: give me understanding, and I shall live.
