Psalms 119:157-166

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.

¹⁶⁵Things go well for those who love your laws; there is nothing adverse/bad that will happen to them.

¹⁶⁶Yahweh, I confidently expect that you will rescue me from my troubles, and I obey ◄your commands/what you have commanded us►.
