32I will run in the way of your commandments, for you give me room of heart.
33Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes, and I will keep it to the end,
34instruct me to keep your law, and I will observe it with all my heart.
35Guide me in the path of your commandments, for therein do I delight.
36Incline my heart to your charges, and not to greed of gain.
37Turn away my eyes from vain sights, revive me by your word.
38Confirm to your servant the promise which is given to those who fear you.
39Remove the reproach which I dread, because your judgements are good.
40Behold, I long for your precepts. Quicken me in your righteousness.
41Visit me, Lord, with your love and salvation, as you have promised.
42So shall I answer my slanderers, for my trust is in your word.
43Snatch not from my mouth the word of truth, for in your judgements I hope.
44I will keep your law continually, for ever and evermore.
45So shall I walk in wide spaces, for I give my mind to your precepts.
46I will speak of your charge before kings, and will not be ashamed thereof.
47Your commandments are my delight, I love them exceedingly.
48I will lift up my hands to your commandments, and muse upon your statutes.
49Remember your word to your servant, on which you have made me to hope.
50This is my comfort in trouble, that your word gives life to me.
51The arrogant utterly scorn me, but I have not declined from your law.
52When I think of your judgements of old, O Lord, I take to me comfort.
53I am seized with glowing anger at the wicked who forsake your law.
54Your statutes have been to me songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
55I remember your name in the night, O Lord and observe your law.
56My lot has been this, that I have kept your precepts.
57My portion are you, O Lord: I have promised to keep your words.
58I entreat you with all my heart; grant me your promised favour.
59I have thought upon my ways, and turned my feet to your charges.
60I hasted and tarried not to give heed to your commandments.
61Though the godless have wound their cords round me, I have not forgotten your law.
62At midnight I rise to praise you because of your righteous judgements.
63With all those who fear you I company, aid with those who observe your precepts.
64The earth, Lord, is full of your kindness; teach me your Statutes.
65Well have you dealt with your servant, as you have promised, O Lord.
66Teach me discretion and knowledge, for I have believed your commandments.
67Till trouble came I was a wanderer, but now I observe your word.
68You are good and do good; teach me your statutes.
69The proud have forged lies against me, but I keep your precepts with all my heart.
70Their heart is gross like fat, but I delight in your law.
71It was good for me to be humbled, that I should learn your statutes.
72The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.
73Your hands have made me and fashioned me; make me wise to learn your commandments.
74Those who fear you shall see me with joy, for in your word have I hoped.
75I know, O Lord, that your judgements are right, and in faithfulness you have afflicted me.
76Let your love be a comfort to me, for so have you promised your servant.
77Visit me with your quickening pity, for your law is my delight.
78Put the proud to shame, who have wronged me falsely: I will muse on your precepts.
79Let those turn to me who fear you, that they may learn your charges.
80Let my heart be sound in your statutes, that I may not be put to shame.
81My long for you to rescue me, I put my hope in your word.
82My eyes pine away for your promise: saying, “When will you comfort me?”
83Though shrivelled like wine-skin in smoke, your statutes I have not forgotten.
84How few are the days of your servant! When will you judge those who harass me?
85Proud people have dug for me pits people who do not conform to your law.
86All your commandments are trusty. With falsehood they harass me: help me.
87They had nearly made an end of me, yet I did not forget your precepts.
88Spare me in your kindness, and I will observe the charge of your mouth.
89Forever, O Lord, is your word fixed firmly in the heavens.
90Your truth endures age after age; it is established on earth, and it stands.
91By your appointment they stand this day, for all are your servants.
92Had not your law been my joy, in my misery then had I perished.
93I will never forget your precepts, for through them you have put life in me.
94I am yours, O save me, for I give my mind to your precepts.
95The wicked lay wait to destroy me, but I give heed to your charge.
96I have seen a limit to all things: but your commandment is spacious exceedingly.
97O how I love your law! All the day long I muse on it.
98Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies: for it is mine forever.
99I am prudent above all my teachers, for your charges are my meditation.
100I have insight more than the aged, because I observe your precepts.
101I refrain my foot from all wicked ways, that I may keep your word.
102I turn not aside from your judgements, for you yourself are my teacher.
103How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104Insight I win through your precepts, therefore every false way I hate.
105Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.
106I have sworn an oath, and will keep it, to observe your righteous judgements.
107I am afflicted sorely: revive me, O Lord, as you said.
108Accept, Lord, my willing praise, and teach me your judgements.
109My life is in ceaseless peril; but I do not forget your law.
