108Accept, I beg you, the willing offerings of my mouth. Adonai , teach me your judgments.
109My soul is continually in my hand, yet I won’t forget your Torah ·Teaching·.
110The wicked have laid a snare for me, yet I haven’t gone astray from your precepts.
111I have taken your testimonies as a heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.
112I have set my heart to perform your statutes forever, even to the end. SAMECH
113I hate double-minded men, but I 'ahav ·affectionately love· your Torah ·Teaching·.
114You are my hiding place and my shield. I hope in your word.
115Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the mitzvot ·instructions· of my God.
116Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope.
117Hold me up, and I will be safe, and will have respect for your statutes continually.
118You reject all those who stray from your statutes, for their deceit is in vain.
119You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross. Therefore I 'ahav ·affectionately love· your testimonies.
120My flesh trembles for fear of you. I am afraid of your judgments. 'AYIN
121I have done what is mishpat ·just· and upright. Don’t leave me to my oppressors.
122Ensure your servant’s well-being. Don’t let the proud oppress me.
123My eyes fail looking for your yishu'ah ·salvation·, for your righteous word.
124Deal with your servant according to your cheshed ·loving-kindness·. Teach me your statutes.
125I am your servant. Give me understanding, that I may know your testimonies.
126It is time to act, Adonai , for they break your Torah ·Teaching·.
127Therefore I 'ahav ·affectionately love· your mitzvot ·instructions· more than gold, yes, more than pure gold.
