39Turn away my reproach whereof I am afraid; for thy judgments are good.
40Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.
41Let thy mercies also come unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation, according to thy word.
42So shall I have an answer for him that reproacheth me; for I trust in thy word.
43And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.
44So shall I observe thy law continually for ever and ever.
45And I will walk at liberty; for I have sought thy precepts.
46I will also speak of thy testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.
47And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.
48I will lift up my hands also unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.
49Remember the word unto thy servant, because thou hast made me to hope.
50This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.
51The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not swerved from thy law.
52I have remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD, and have comforted myself.
53Hot indignation hath taken hold upon me, because of the wicked that forsake thy law.
54Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
55I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have observed thy law.
56This I have had, because I kept thy precepts.
57The LORD is my portion: I have said that I would observe thy words.
58I entreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word.
59I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
60I made haste, and delayed not, to observe thy commandments.
61The cords of the wicked have wrapped me round; but I have not forgotten thy law.
62At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.
63I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that observe thy precepts.
64The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.
65Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word.
66Teach me good judgment and knowledge; for I have believed in thy commandments.
67Before I was afflicted I went astray; but now I observe thy word.
68Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.
69The proud have forged a lie against me: with my whole heart will I keep thy precepts.
70Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.
72The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.
73Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.
74They that fear thee shall see me and be glad; because I have hoped in thy word.
75I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness thou hast afflicted me.
76Let, I pray thee, thy lovingkindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.
77Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.
78Let the proud be ashamed; for they have overthrown me wrongfully: but I will meditate in thy precepts.
79Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and they shall know thy testimonies.
80Let my heart be perfect in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.
81My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.
82Mine eyes fail for thy word, while I say, When wilt thou comfort me?
83For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.
84How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?
85The proud have digged pits for me, who are not after thy law.
86All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.
87They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.
88Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I observe the testimony of thy mouth.
89For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
90Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.
91They abide this day according to thine ordinances; for all things are thy servants.
92Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction.
93I will never forget thy precepts; for with them thou hast quickened me.
94I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts.
95The wicked have waited for me to destroy me; but I will consider thy testimonies.
96I have seen an end of all perfection; but thy commandment is exceeding broad.
97Oh how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day.
98Thy commandments make me wiser than mine enemies; for they are ever with me.
99I have more understanding than all my teachers; for thy testimonies are my meditation.
100I understand more than the aged, because I have kept thy precepts.
101I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might observe thy word.
102I have not turned aside from thy judgments; for thou hast taught me.
103How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
105Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and light unto my path,
106I have sworn, and have confirmed it, that I will observe thy righteous judgments.
107I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word.
108Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments.
109My soul is continually in my hand; yet do I not forget thy law.
110The wicked have laid a snare for me; yet went I not astray from thy precepts.
111Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever; for they are the rejoicing of my heart.
112I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes, for ever, even unto the end.
113I hate them that are of a double mind; but thy law do I love.
114Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.
115Depart from me, ye evil-doers; that I may keep the commandments of my God.
116Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live; and let me not be ashamed of my hope.
117Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe, and shall have respect unto thy statutes continually.
118Thou hast set at nought all them that err from thy statutes; for their deceit is falsehood.
119Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.
120My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.
121I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.
122Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.
123Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for thy righteous word.
124Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.
125I am thy servant, give me understanding; that I may know thy testimonies.
126It is time for the LORD to work; for they have made void thy law.
127Therefore I love thy commandments above gold, yea, above fine gold.
128Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
