135Shine with your face on your servant, and teach me your statutes.
136My eyes run down with rills of water, because your law is not kept.
137Righteous are you, O Lord, and right are your ordinances.
138The laws you has ordered are just, and trusty exceedingly.
139My jealousy has undone me, that my foes have forgotten your words.
140Your word has been tested well; and your servant loves it.
141I am little and held in contempt, but your precepts I have not forgotten.
142Just is your justice forever, and trusty is your law.
143Stress and strain are upon me, but your commandments are my delight.
144Right are your charges forever, instruct me that I may live.
145With my whole heart I cry; O answer me. I would keep your statutes, O Lord.
146I cry to you: O save me, and I will observe your charges.
147Ere the dawn I cry for your help: in your word do I hope.
148Awake I meet the night-watches, to muse upon your sayings.
149Hear my voice in your kindness: O Lord, by your judgments revive me.
150Near me are wicked tormentors, who are far from thoughts of your law;
151but near, too, are you, O Lord, and all your commandments are trusty.
152Long have I known from your charges that you have founded them for all time.
153Look on my misery, and rescue me; for I do not forget your law.
154Defend my cause and redeem me: revive me, as you have promised.
155Salvation is far from the wicked, for their mind is not in your statutes.
156Great is your pity, O Lord: Revive me, as you have ordained.
157My foes and tormentors are many, but I have not declined from your charges.
158I behold the traitors with loathing, for they do not observe your word.
159Behold how I love your precepts: revive me, O Lord!, in your kindness.
160The sum of your word is truth, all your laws are just and eternal.
161Princes have harassed me wantonly: but my heart stands in awe of your word.
162Over your word I rejoice as one who finds great spoil.
163Falsehood I hate and abhor, but your law do I love.
