63I am a companion of all who honor you, to all who observe your instructions.
64The earth, Yahweh, is full of your covenant faithfulness; teach me your statutes.
65You have done good to your servant, Yahweh, by means of your word.
66Teach me proper discernment and understanding, for I have believed in your commandments.
67Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I observe your word.
68You are good, and you are one who does good; teach me your statutes.
69The arrogant have smeared me with lies, but I keep your instructions with my whole heart.
70Their hearts are hardened, but I delight in your law.
71It is good for me that I have suffered so that I would learn your statutes.
72Instruction from your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.
73Your hands have made and fashioned me; give me understanding so that I may learn your commandments.
74Those who honor you will be glad when they see me because I find hope in your word.
75I know, Yahweh, that your decrees are just, and that in faithfulness you afflicted me.
76Let your covenant faithfulness comfort me, as you promised your servant.
77Show me compassion so that I may live, for your law is my delight.
78Let the proud be put to shame, for they have slandered me; but I will meditate on your instructions.
79May those who honor you turn to me, those who know your covenant decrees.
80May my heart be blameless with respect to your statutes so that I may not be put to shame.
81I faint with longing that you might rescue me! I hope in your word.
82My eyes long to see your promise; when will you comfort me?
83For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke; I do not forget your statutes.
84How long must your servant endure this; when will you judge those who persecute me?
85The proud have dug pits for me, defying your law.
86All your commandments are reliable; those people persecute me wrongfully; help me.
87They have almost made an end to me on earth, but I do not reject your instructions.
88By your steadfast love, keep me alive, so that I may obey your commands.
89Yahweh, your word stands forever; your word is established firmly in heaven.
90Your faithfulness lasts for all generations; you have established the earth, and it remains.
91All things continue to this day, just as you said in your righteous decrees, for all things are your servants.
92If your law had not been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction.
93I will never forget your instructions, for through them you have kept me alive.
94I am yours; save me, for I seek your instructions.
95The wicked prepare to destroy me, but I will seek to understand your covenant decrees.
96I have seen that everything has its limits, but your commandments are broad, beyond limits.
97Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all day long.
98Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for your commandments are always with me.
99I have more understanding than all my teachers, for I meditate on your covenant decrees.
100I understand more than those older than I am; this is because I have kept your instructions.
101I have kept my feet back from every evil path so that I might observe your word.
102I have not turned aside from your righteous decrees, for you have instructed me.
103How sweet are your words to my taste, yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104Through your instructions I gain discernment; therefore I hate every false way.
105Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.
106I have sworn and have confirmed it, that I will observe your righteous decrees.
107I am very afflicted; keep me alive, Yahweh, as you have promised in your word.
108Yahweh, please accept the freewill offerings of my mouth, and teach me your righteous decrees.
