36Incline my heart unto Thy testimonies, And not unto dishonest gain.
37Remove mine eyes from seeing vanity, In Thy way quicken Thou me.
38Establish to Thy servant Thy saying, That is concerning Thy fear.
39Remove my reproach that I have feared, For Thy judgments are good.
40Lo, I have longed for Thy precepts, In Thy righteousness quicken Thou me,
41Waw. And meet me doth Thy kindness, O Jehovah, Thy salvation according to Thy saying.
42And I answer him who is reproaching me a word, For I have trusted in Thy word.
43And Thou takest not utterly away From my mouth the word of truth, Because for Thy judgment I have hoped.
44And I keep Thy law continually, To the age and for ever.
45And I walk habitually in a broad place, For Thy precepts I have sought.
46And I speak of Thy testimonies before kings, And I am not ashamed.
47And I delight myself in Thy commands, That I have loved,
48And I lift up my hands unto Thy commands, That I have loved, And I do meditate on Thy statutes!
49Zain. Remember the word to Thy servant, On which Thou hast caused me to hope.
50This is my comfort in mine affliction, That Thy saying hath quickened me.
51The proud have utterly scorned me, From Thy law I have not turned aside.
52I remembered Thy judgments of old, O Jehovah, And I comfort myself.
53Horror hath seized me, Because of the wicked forsaking Thy law.
54Songs have been to me Thy statutes, In the house of my sojournings.
55I have remembered in the night Thy name, O Jehovah, And I do keep Thy law.
56This hath been to me, That Thy precepts I have kept!
57Cheth. My portion is Jehovah; I have said — to keep Thy words,
58I appeased Thy face with the whole heart, Favour me according to Thy saying.
59I have reckoned my ways, And turn back my feet unto Thy testimonies.
60I have made haste, And delayed not, to keep Thy commands.
61Cords of the wicked have surrounded me, Thy law I have not forgotten.
62At midnight I rise to give thanks to Thee, For the judgments of Thy righteousness.
63A companion I am to all who fear Thee, And to those keeping Thy precepts.
64Of Thy kindness, O Jehovah, the earth is full, Thy statutes teach Thou me!
65Teth. Good Thou didst with Thy servant, O Jehovah, According to Thy word.
66The goodness of reason and knowledge teach me, For in Thy commands I have believed.
67Before I am afflicted, I — I am erring, And now Thy saying I have kept.
68Good Thou art, and doing good, Teach me Thy statutes.
69Forged against me falsehood have the proud, I with the whole heart keep Thy precepts.
70Insensate as fat hath been their heart, I — in Thy law I have delighted.
71Good for me that I have been afflicted, That I might learn Thy statutes.
72Better to me is the law of Thy mouth Than thousands of gold and silver!
73Yod. Thy hands made me and establish me, Cause me to understand, and I learn Thy commands.
74Those fearing Thee see me and rejoice, Because for Thy word I have hoped.
75I have known, O Jehovah, That righteous are Thy judgments, And in faithfulness Thou hast afflicted me.
76Let, I pray Thee, Thy kindness be to comfort me, According to Thy saying to Thy servant.
77Meet me do Thy mercies, and I live, For Thy law is my delight.
78Ashamed are the proud, For with falsehood they dealt perversely with me. I meditate in Thy precepts.
79Those fearing Thee turn back to me, And those knowing Thy testimonies.
80My heart is perfect in Thy statutes, So that I am not ashamed.
81Kaph. Consumed for Thy salvation hath been my soul, For Thy word I have hoped.
82Consumed have been mine eyes for Thy word, Saying, 'When doth it comfort me?'
83For I have been as a bottle in smoke, Thy statutes I have not forgotten.
84How many are the days of Thy servant? When dost Thou execute Against my pursuers judgment?
85The proud have digged for me pits, That are not according to Thy law.
86All Thy commands are faithfulness, With falsehood they have pursued me, Help Thou me.
