37Let my eyes be turned away from what is false; give me life in your ways.
38Give effect to your word to your servant, in whose heart is the fear of you.
39Take away the shame which is my fear; for your decisions are good.
40See how great is my desire for your orders: give me life in your righteousness.
41VAU Let your mercies come to me, O Lord, even your salvation, as you have said.
42So that I may have an answer for the man who would put me to shame; for I have faith in your word.
43Take not your true word quite out of my mouth; for I have put my hope in your decisions.
44So that I may keep your law for ever and ever;
45So that my way may be in a wide place: because my search has been for your orders.
46So that I may give knowledge of your unchanging word before kings, and not be put to shame.
47And so that I may take delight in your teachings, to which I have given my love.
48And so that my hands may be stretched out to you; and I will give thought to your rules.
49ZAIN Keep in mind your word to your servant, for on it has my hope been fixed.
50This is my comfort in my trouble; that your sayings have given me life.
51The men of pride have made great sport of me; but I have not been turned from your law.
52I have kept the memory of your decisions from times past, O Lord; and they have been my comfort.
53I am burning with wrath, because of the sinners who have given up your law.
54Your rules have been melodies to me, while I have been living in strange lands.
55I have given thought to your name in the night, O Lord, and have kept your law.
56This has been true of me, that I have kept your orders in my heart.
57CHETH The Lord is my heritage: I have said that I would be ruled by your words.
58I have given my mind to do your pleasure with all my heart; have mercy on me, as you have said.
59I gave thought to my steps, and my feet were turned into the way of your unchanging word.
60I was quick to do your orders, and let no time be wasted.
61The cords of evil-doers are round me; but I have kept in mind your law.
62In the middle of the night I will get up to give you praise, because of all your right decisions.
63I keep company with all your worshippers, and those who have your orders in their memory.
64The earth, O Lord, is full of your mercy: give me knowledge of your rules.
65TETH You have done good to your servant, O Lord, in keeping with your word.
66Give me knowledge and good sense; for I have put my faith in your teachings.
67Before I was in trouble I went out of the way; but now I keep your word.
68You are good, and your works are good; give me knowledge of your rules.
69The men of pride have said false things about me; but I will keep your orders in my heart.
70Their hearts are shut up with fat; but my delight is in your law.
71It is good for me to have been through trouble; so that I might come to the knowledge of your rules.
72The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver.
73JOD Your hands have made me, and given me form: give me wisdom, so that I may have knowledge of your teaching.
74Your worshippers will see me and be glad; because my hope has been in your word.
75I have seen, O Lord, that your decisions are right, and that in unchanging faith you have sent trouble on me.
76Let your mercy now be my comfort, as you have said to your servant.
77Let your gentle mercies come to me, so that I may have life; for your law is my delight.
78Let the men of pride be shamed; because they have falsely given decision against me; but I will give thought to your orders.
79Let your worshippers be turned to me, and those who have knowledge of your words.
80Let all my heart be given to your orders, so that I may not be put to shame.
81CAPH My soul is wasted with desire for your salvation: but I have hope in your word.
82My eyes are full of weariness with searching for your word, saying, When will you give me comfort?
83For I have become like a wine-skin black with smoke; but I still keep the memory of your rules.
84How short is the life of your servant! when will you give your decision against those who are attacking me?
85The men of pride, who are turned away from your law, have put nets for me.
86All your teachings are certain; they go after me with evil design; give me your help.
87They had almost put an end to me on earth; but I did not give up your orders.
88Give me life in your mercy; so that I may be ruled by the unchanging word of your mouth.
89LAMED For ever, O Lord, your word is fixed in heaven.
90Your faith is unchanging from generation to generation: you have put the earth in its place, and it is not moved.
91They are ruled this day by your decisions; for all things are your servants.
92If your law had not been my delight, my troubles would have put an end to me.
93I will ever keep your orders in mind; for in them I have life.
94I am yours, O be my saviour; for my desire has been for your rules.
95The sinners have been waiting for me to give me up to destruction; but I will give all my mind to your unchanging ward.
96I have seen that nothing on earth is complete; but your teaching is very wide.
97MEM O what love I have for your law! I give thought to it all the day.
98Your teaching has made me wiser than my haters: for it is mine for ever.
99I have more knowledge than all my teachers, because I give thought to your unchanging word.
100I have more wisdom than the old, because I have kept your orders.
101I have kept back my feet from all evil ways, so that I might be true to your word.
102My heart has not been turned away from your decisions; for you have been my teacher.
103How sweet are your sayings to my taste! truly, they are sweeter than honey in my mouth!
104Through your orders I get wisdom; for this reason I am a hater of every false way.
105NUN Your word is a light for my feet, ever shining on my way.
106I have made an oath and kept it, to be guided by your upright decisions.
107I am greatly troubled, O Lord, give me life in keeping with your word.
108Take, O Lord, the free offerings of my mouth, and give me knowledge of your decisions.
109My soul is ever in danger; but I still keep the memory of your law.
110Sinners have put a net to take me; but I was true to your orders.
111I have taken your unchanging word as an eternal heritage; for it is the joy of my heart.
112My heart is ever ready to keep your rules, even to the end.
113SAMECH I am a hater of men of doubting mind; but I am a lover of your law.
114You are my secret place and my breastplate against danger; my hope is in your word.
