Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope. 119:50 This [is] my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me. 119:51 The proud have had me greatly in derision: [yet] have I not declined from thy law. 119:52 I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself. 119:53 Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law. 119:54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage. 119:55 I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law. 119:56 This I had, because I kept thy precepts. 119:57 CHETH. [Thou art] my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words. 119:58 I intreated thy favour with [my] whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word. 119:59 I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies. 119:60 I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments. 119:61 The bands of the wicked have robbed me: [but] I have not forgotten thy law. 119:62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments. 119:63 I [am] a companion of all [them] that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts. 119:64 The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes. 119:65 TETH. Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word. 119:66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments. 119:67 Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word. 119:68 Thou [art] good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes. 119:69 The proud have forged a lie against me: [but] I will keep thy precepts with [my] whole heart. 119:70 Their heart is as fat as grease; [but] I delight in thy law. 119:71 [It is] good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes. 119:72 The law of thy mouth [is] better unto me than thousands of gold and silver. 119:73 JOD. Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments. 119:74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word. 119:75 I know, O LORD, that thy judgments [are] right, and [that] thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. 119:76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant. 119:77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law [is] my delight. 119:78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: [but] I will meditate in thy precepts. 119:79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies. 119:80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed. 119:81 CAPH. My soul fainteth for thy salvation: [but] I hope in thy word. 119:82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me? 119:83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; [yet] do I not forget thy statutes. 119:84 How many [are] the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me? 119:85 The proud have digged pits for me, which [are] not after thy law. 119:86 All thy commandments [are] faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me. 119:87 They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts. 119:88 Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth. 119:89 LAMED. For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven. 119:90 Thy faithfulness [is] unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. 119:91 They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all [are] thy servants. 119:92 Unless thy law [had been] my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction. 119:93 I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me. 119:94 I [am] thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts. 119:95 The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: [but] I will consider thy testimonies. 119:96 I have seen an end of all perfection: [but] thy commandment [is] exceeding broad. 119:97 MEM. O how love I thy law! it [is] my meditation all the day. 119:98 Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they [are] ever with me. 119:99 I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies [are] my meditation. 119:100 I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. 119:101 I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. 119:102 I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me. 119:103 How sweet are thy words unto my taste! [yea, sweeter] than honey to my mouth! 119:104 Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way. 119:105 NUN. Thy word [is] a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. 119:106 I have sworn, and I will perform [it], that I will keep thy righteous judgments. 119:107 I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word. 119:108 Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments. 119:109 My soul [is] continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law. 119:110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts. 119:111 Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they [are] the rejoicing of my heart. 119:112 I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, [even unto] the end. 119:113 SAMECH. I hate [vain] thoughts: but thy law do I love. 119:114 Thou [art] my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word. 119:115 Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God. 119:116 Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope. 119:117 Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually. 119:118 Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit [is] falsehood. 119:119 Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth [like] dross: therefore I love thy testimonies. 119:120 My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments. 119:121 AIN. I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors. 119:122 Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me. 119:123 Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness. 119:124 Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes. 119:125 I [am] thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies. 119:126 [It is] time for [thee], LORD, to work: [for] they have made void thy law. 119:127 Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold. 119:128 Therefore I esteem all [thy] precepts [concerning] all [things to be] right; [and] I hate every false way. 119:129 PE. Thy testimonies [are] wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them. 119:130 The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. 119:131 I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments. 119:132 Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name. 119:133 Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. 119:134 Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts. 119:135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes. 119:136 Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law. 119:137 TZADDI. Righteous [art] thou, O LORD, and upright [are] thy judgments. 119:138 Thy testimonies [that] thou hast commanded [are] righteous and very faithful. 119:139 My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words. 119:140 Thy word [is] very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it. 119:141 I [am] small and despised: [yet] do not I forget thy precepts. 119:142 Thy righteousness [is] an everlasting righteousness, and thy law [is] the truth. 119:143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: [yet] thy commandments [are] my delights. 119:144 The righteousness of thy testimonies [is] everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live. 119:145 KOPH. I cried with [my] whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep thy statutes. 119:146 I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies. 119:147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word. 119:148 Mine eyes prevent the [night] watches, that I might meditate in thy word. 119:149 Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment. 119:150 They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law. 119:151 Thou [art] near, O LORD; and all thy commandments [are] truth. 119:152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever. 119:153 RESH.
