Psalms 119
Alleluiah.
119:1Blessed are the unblemished in the way; the ones going by the law of the lord.
119:2Blessed are the ones searching out his testimonies; with the entire heart they shall seek after him.
119:3For the ones practicing lawlessness were not gone in his ways.
119:4You gave charge to keep your commandments exceedingly.
119:5Ought that my ways be straightened out to keep your ordinances;
119:6then in no way should I be ashamed in my paying attention concerning all of your commandments.
119:7I shall confess to you in uprightness of heart in my learning the judgments of your righteousness.
119:8Your ordinances I will keep. You should not abandon me unto an exceeding amount.
119:9How shall a younger man keep straight his way? by the keeping of your words.
119:10With my whole heart I inquired of you; you should not thrust me from your commandments.
119:11In my heart I hid your oracles, so that I should not sin against you.
119:12Blessed are you, O lord. Teach me your ordinances!
119:13With my lips I will declare all the judgments of your mouth.
119:14I delighted in the way of your testimonies as above all riches.
119:15In your commandments I shall meditate; and I shall contemplate your ways.
119:16I shall meditate in your ordinances; I shall not forget your words.
119:17Recompense to your servant! Enliven me! and I will keep your words
119:18Uncover my eyes! and I shall contemplate the wonders of your law.
119:19I am a sojourner in the earth; you should not conceal from me your commandments.
119:20My soul longed to desire your judgments at every occasion.
119:21You reproached the proud; accursed are the ones turning aside from your commandments.
119:22Remove from me scorn and contempt! for I inquired of your testimonies.
119:23For even rulers sat and spoke ill against me; but your servant meditated in your ordinances.
119:24For even your testimonies are my meditation; and your ordinances are my advice.
119:25My soul cleaved to the floor; let me live according to your word!
119:26My ways I declared, and you heeded me. Teach me your ordinances!
119:27Bring understanding to me in the way of your ordinances! and I will meditate in your wonders.
119:28My soul slumbered from indifference. Firm me in your words!
119:29Remove the way of injustice from me, and show mercy to me by your law!
119:30The way of truth I took up, and your judgments I did not forget.
119:31I cleaved to your testimonies, O lord; you should not put me to shame.
119:32I ran the way of your commandments, whenever you widened my heart.
119:33Establish for me, O lord, the way of your ordinances! and I will seek after them always.
119:34Bring understanding to me! and I will search out your law, and I will guard it with my whole heart.
119:35Guide me in the road of your commandments! for I wanted it.
119:36Lean my heart unto your testimonies, and not unto the desire for wealth!
119:37Turn my eyes to not behold folly! Enliven me in your way!
119:38Establish to your servant your oracle, so as to fear you!
119:39Remove my scorn! which I dreaded, for your judgments are gracious.
119:40Behold, I desired your commandments; enliven me in your righteousness!
119:41And may your mercy come upon me, O lord; even your deliverance according to your word.
119:42Then I shall answer to the ones berating against me in a matter, for I hoped upon your words.
119:43For you should not remove from out of my mouth the word of truth unto an exceeding amount; for upon your judgments I raised hope.
119:44And I shall guard your law always, into the eon, and into the eon of the eon.
119:45For I went into an enlargement; for I sought after your commandments.
119:46And I spoke by your testimonies before kings, and I was not ashamed.
119:47And I meditated in your commandments which I loved very much.
119:48And I lifted my hands to your commandments which I loved; and I meditated in your ordinances.
119:49Remember your words to your servant! which you raised my hope.
119:50This comforted me in my humiliation; for your oracle enlivened me.
119:51The proud acted unlawfully unto exceedingly; but from your law I did not turn aside.
119:52I remembered your judgments of the eon, O lord, and I was comforted.
119:53Depression held me down because of the sinners -- the ones abandoning your law.
119:54Your ordinances were as strummed chords of music to me in the place of my sojourn.
119:55I remembered your name in the night, O lord, and I kept your law.
119:56This happened to me, for I sought after your ordinances.
119:57You are my portion, O lord. I spoke concerning guarding your law.
119:58I beseeched your face with my entire heart. Show mercy on me according to your oracle!
119:59I argued your ways, and I turned my feet to your testimonies.
119:60I prepared myself, and was not disturbed to keep your commandments.
119:61The rough cords of sinners twist me, but your law I did not forget.
119:62At midnight I awoke to confess to you over the judgments of your righteousness.
119:63I am a partner of all of the ones fearing you, and of the ones keeping your commandments.
119:64Of your mercy, O lord, the earth is full; teach me your ordinances!
119:65That which is good you did with your servant, O lord, according to your word.
119:66That which is good, and instruction, and knowledge, teach me! for I trusted your commandments!
119:67Before my being humbled, I committed trespasses; on account of this I guarded your oracle.
119:68You are gracious, O lord; and in your graciousness teach me your ordinances!
119:69The injustice of the proud was multiplied against me; but I shall search out your commandments with my whole heart.
119:70Their heart was curdled as milk; but I meditated upon your law.
119:71It is good for me that you humbled me, so that I should learn your ordinances.
119:72The law of your mouth is good to me, above a thousand pieces of gold and silver.
119:73Your hands made me, and shaped me. Bring understanding to me! and I shall learn your commandments.
119:74The ones fearing you shall see me and shall be glad; for in your words I raised hope.
119:75I knew, O lord, that your judgments are righteousness, and in truth you humbled me.
119:76Let your mercy indeed be to comfort me according to your oracle to your servant!
119:77Let your compassions come to me! and I shall live; for your law is my meditation.
119:78Let the proud be shamed! for unjustly they acted lawlessly against me. But I shall meditate in your commandments.
119:79Turn towards me the ones fearing you, and the ones knowing your testimonies!
119:80Let my heart become unblemished in your ordinances! so that I should not be shamed.
119:81My soul is wanting for your deliverance. In your words I raised hope.
119:82My eyes failed for your oracle, saying, When will you comfort me?
119:83For I became as a leather bag in frost; your ordinances I forgot not.
119:84How many are the days of your servant? When will you execute for me a judgment against the ones pursuing me?
119:85Lawbreakers described a meditation against me, but not according to your law, O lord.
119:86All your commandments are truth. They pursued me unjustly; help me!
119:87In a short time they would have finished me off entirely in the earth, but I did not abandon your commandments.
119:88According to your mercy enliven me! and I shall guard the testimonies of your mouth.
119:89Into the eon, O lord, your word abides in the heaven.
119:90Unto generation and generation is your truth. You laid the earth's foundation, and it abides.
119:91The day abides by your disposition; for all things are your subservient.
119:92Were it not that your law is my meditation, then would I have been destroyed in my humiliation.
119:93In no way should I forget your ordinances into the eon; for by them you enlivened me.
119:94I am yours, deliver me! for I sought after your ordinances.
119:95Sinners remained behind for me, to destroy me; I perceived your testimonies.
119:96I beheld the end of every completion; your commandment is exceedingly spacious.
119:97How I loved your law, O lord; the entire day it is my meditation.
119:98Above my enemies you made me wiser by your commandment; for into the eon it is to me.
119:99Above all the ones teaching me I perceived; for your testimonies are my meditation.
119:100Above the elders I perceived; for I sought after your commandments.
119:101From out of every evil way I restrained my feet, so that I shall guard your words.
119:102From your judgments I did not turn aside; for you established law for me.
119:103How sweet to my throat are your oracles; more than honey in my mouth.
119:104By your commandments I perceived; on account of this I detested every way of injustice.
119:105Your law is a lamp unto my feet and a light to my paths.
119:106I swore by an oath, and stood to guard the judgments of your righteousness.
119:107I was humbled unto exceedingly, O lord; enliven me according to your word!
119:108Take pleasure indeed in the voluntary offerings of my mouth, O lord, and teach me your judgments!
119:109My soul is in your hands always; and your law I forgot not.
119:110Sinners put a snare for me; but from your commandments I wandered not.
119:111I inherited your testimonies into the eon; for they are a leap for joy to my heart.
119:112I leaned my heart to observe your ordinances into the eon in remuneration.
119:113Lawbreakers I detested, but your law I loved.
119:114You are my helper and my shielder; by your words I raised hope.
119:115Turn aside from me O ones acting wicked! for I shall search out the commandments of my God.
119:116Take hold of me according to your oracle; and enliven me! for you should not put me to shame of my expectation.
119:117Help me, and I shall be delivered! and I will meditate in your ordinances always.
119:118All the ones defecting from your ordinances treated me with contempt; for their thought is unjust.
119:119All the sinners of the earth I considered as ones violating the law; on account of this I loved your testimonies.
119:120Nail up my flesh because of the fear of you! for because of your judgments I feared.
119:121I executed judgment and righteousness; you should not deliver me to the ones wronging me.
119:122Look out for your servant for good; let not the proud extort me!
119:123My eyes are wanting for your deliverance, and for the oracle of your righteousness.
119:124Do with your servant according to your mercy, and teach me your ordinances!
119:125I am your servant; bring understanding to me! and I will make known your testimonies.
119:126It is time for the lord to act; they effaced your law.
119:127On account of this I loved your commandments above gold and topaz.
119:128On account of this I kept straight to all of your commandments; every way of the unjust I detested.
119:129Your testimonies are wonderful; on account of this my soul searches them out.
119:130The manifestation of your words shall give light, and bring understanding to simple ones.
119:131I opened my mouth and drew breath; for your commandments I longed after.
119:132Look upon me, and show mercy on me! according to the practice of the ones loving your name.
119:133Straighten out my footsteps according to your oracle! and let there not dominate me any lawlessness!
119:134Ransom me from the extortion of men! and I will keep your commandments.
119:135Let your face appear unto your servant, and teach me your ordinances!
119:136Streams of waters flowed down my eyes when I kept not your law.
119:137You are just, O lord, and your judgments are straight.
119:138You gave charge for righteousness of your testimonies and truth -- exceedingly.
119:139The zeal of you wasted me away, for my enemies forgot your words.
119:140Your oracle is an exceeding setting on fire; and your servant loves it.
119:141I am younger, and being treated with contempt; I did not forget your ordinances.
119:142Your righteousness is righteousness into the eon, and your law is truth.
119:143Afflictions and distresses found me; your commandments are my meditation.
119:144Your testimonies are righteousness into the eon. Bring understanding to me! and I shall live.
119:145I cried out with my whole heart. Heed me, O lord! I will seek after your ordinances.
119:146I cried out to you; deliver me! and I will keep your testimonies.
119:147I anticipated at midnight, and I cried out; in your words I raised hope.
119:148My eyes anticipated before dawn to meditate upon your oracles.
119:149Hear my voice, O lord, according to your mercy! Enliven me according to your judgment!
119:150The ones pursuing me lawlessly draw near, and they are far from your law.
119:151You are near, O lord, and all your ways are truth.
119:152From ancient times I knew of your testimonies, that into the eon you founded them.
119:153Behold my humiliation, and rescue me! for I did not forget your law.
119:154Judge my case, and ransom me! On account of your word enliven me!
119:155Deliverance is far from sinners, for they did not seek after your ordinances.
119:156Your compassions are many, O lord; according to your judgment enliven me!
119:157Many are the ones driving me out and afflicting me; from your testimonies I did not turn aside.
119:158I beheld ones lacking sense and wasting away, for they kept not your oracles.
119:159Behold! for I loved your commandments, O lord; in your mercy enliven me!
119:160The beginning of your words is truth; and into the eon are all the judgments of your righteousness.
119:161Rulers pursued me without charge; and from your words my heart was timid.
119:162I shall exult over your oracles, as one finding many spoils.
119:163Injustice I detested and abhorred; but your law I loved.
119:164Seven times a day I praised you over the judgments of your righteousness.
119:165Great peace is to the ones loving your law, and there is no obstacle to them.
119:166I expected your deliverance, O lord, and loved your commandments.
119:167My soul guarded your testimonies, and it loved them very much.
119:168I kept your commandments and your testimonies, for all my ways are before you, O lord.
119:169Let my supplication approach before you, O lord! according to your oracle bring understanding to me!
119:170May that which is fit of me enter before you, O lord; according to your oracle rescue me!
119:171My lips discharged forth a hymn, whenever you should teach me your ordinances.
119:172May my tongue utter the sound of your oracles, for all your commandments are righteousness.
119:173Let your hand be to deliver me! for I took up your commandments.
119:174I longed after your deliverance, O lord, and your law is my meditation.
119:175My soul shall live, and it shall praise you; and your judgments shall help me.
119:176I wandered as a sheep perishing. Seek your servant! for your commandments I did not forget.
