Psalms 119:89-109

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.

¹⁰⁹My life is always in my hand, yet I do not forget your law.
