LITV - Psalms - 119

119:1  Aleph Blessed are the upright in the way, who walk in the law of Jehovah.

119:2  Blessed are those keeping His testimonies, who seek Him with the whole heart.

119:3  They also do not work evil; they walk in His way.

119:4  You have commanded to carefully keep Your precepts.

119:5  O that my ways were fixed to keep Your statutes!

119:6  Then I shall not be ashamed, when I look to all Your commands.

119:7  I will thank You with integrity of heart, in my learning the judgments of Your righteousness.

119:8  I will keep Your statutes; do not forsake me utterly.

119:9  Beth By what shall a young man purify his way, to keep it according to Your word?

119:10  I have sought You with my whole heart; do not let me wander from Your commands.

119:11  I have hidden Your word in my heart, that I might not sin against You.

119:12  Blessed are you, O Jehovah; teach me Your statutes.

119:13  I have declared all the judgments of Your mouth with my lips;

119:14  I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies as over all riches.

119:15  I will meditate in Your precepts and I will regard Your ways.

119:16  I will delight myself in Your statutes. I will not forget Your word.

119:17  Gimel. Deal bountifully with Your servant that I may live, and I will keep Your word.

119:18  Open my eyes and I will see wonderful things from Your law.

119:19  I am an alien in the earth; hide not Your commandments from me.

119:20  My soul is breaking for the longing to Your judgments in every season.

119:21  You have rebuked the proud, the cursed ones who go astray from Your commands.

119:22  Roll from me reproach and scorn; for I have kept Your testimonies.

119:23  Princes also sat, speaking against me; but Your servant meditates on Your laws.

119:24  Your testimonies also are my delight and my counselors.

119:25  Daleth. My soul clings to the dust; give me life according to Your word.

119:26  I have declared my ways, and You answered me; teach me Your statutes.

119:27  Make me understand the way of Your precepts, and I will meditate on Your wonders.

119:28  My soul drops with grief; Lift me up according to Your word.

119:29  Remove from me the way of lying, and favor me with Your law.

119:30  I have chosen the way of truth; I have held Your judgments level;

119:31  I have clung to Your testimonies; O Jehovah, do not shame me.

119:32  I will run the way of Your commands, for You shall enlarge my heart.

119:33  He. O Jehovah, teach me the way of Your statutes, and I will keep it to the end.

119:34  Make me understand and I will keep Your law, and observe it with the whole heart.

119:35  Make me walk in the way of Your commands, for in it I delight.

119:36  Bow my heart to Your testimonies, and not to unjust gain.

119:37  Turn my eyes from seeing vanity; in Your way give me life.

119:38  Make Your word sure to Your servant, who is devoted to Your fear.

119:39  Turn away my shame which I fear; for Your judgments are good.

119:40  Behold, I have longed for Your precepts; grant to me life in Your righteousness.

119:41  Vau. By Your word, according to Your salvation, let Your mercies come to me, O Jehovah.

119:42  And I will answer my reprover a word; for I trust in Your word.

119:43  And do not take the word of truth completely out of my mouth; for I have hoped in Your judgments.

119:44  And I shall keep Your law continually, forever and ever.

119:45  And I will walk in a wide space, for I seek Your commands.

119:46  And I will speak of Your testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.

119:47  And I will delight myself in Your commandments, which I have loved.

119:48  And I will lift up my hands to Your commandments that I love; and I will meditate on Your statutes.

119:49  Zayin. Remember the word to Your servant, on which You made me hope.

119:50  This is my comfort in my affliction; for Your word has given me life.

119:51  The proud have scorned me utterly; I have not veered from Your law.

119:52  I remembered Your judgments from of old, O Jehovah, and I take comfort.

119:53  Hot zeal has seized me because of the wicked forsaking Your law.

119:54  Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimages.

119:55  O Jehovah, I have remembered Your name in the night and have kept Your law.

119:56  This was done to me, because I kept Your commandments.

119:57  Cheth. Jehovah is my portion; I have said to keep Your words.

119:58  I entreated Your face with all my heart; favor me according to Your word.

119:59  I mused on my ways and turned my feet to Your testimonies.

119:60  I hurried and delayed not to keep Your commands.

119:61  The cords of the wicked encircle me; I have not forgotten Your law.

119:62  At halves of the night I will rise to give thanks to You because of Your righteous judgments.

119:63  I am a companion of all who fear You; yea, of those who keep Your precepts.

119:64  O Jehovah, the earth is full of Your mercy; teach me Your statutes.

119:65  Teth. You have done good with Your servant, O Jehovah, by Your word.

119:66  Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I have believed Your commands.

119:67  Before I was afflicted I went astray; but now I have kept Your word.

119:68  You are good and do good; teach me Your statutes.

119:69  The proud have forged a lie against me; I will keep Your precepts with all my heart.

119:70  Their heart is like fat, without feeling; I delight in Your law.

119:71  For my good for me that I was afflicted, to learn Your statutes.

119:72  The law of Your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver.

119:73  Jod. Your hands made me and fixed me; give me discernment that I may learn Your commands.

119:74  The ones fearing You will see me and rejoice; for I hoped in Your word.

119:75  I know, O Jehovah, Your judgments are right; and in fidelity You afflicted me.

119:76  Please let Your mercy be for my comfort, by Your word to Your servant.

119:77  Let Your mercies come to me that I may live; for Your law is my delight.

119:78  Let the proud be ashamed, for with lies they perverted me; I will muse on Your precepts.

119:79  Let fearers of You turn to me, and knowers of Your testimonies.

119:80  Let my heart be blameless in Your statutes, that I may not be ashamed.

119:81  Kaph. My soul is being consumed for Your salvation; I hope in Your word.

119:82  My eyes fail for Your word, saying, When will You comfort me?

119:83  For I am like a wineskin in the smoke; I do not forget Your statutes.

119:84  As what are the days of Your servant? When will You execute judgment on my persecutors?

119:85  The proud have dug pits for me which are not according to Your law.

119:86  All Your commands are faithful; they persecute me with lying; help me!

119:87  In a little they had finished me on earth; but I did not forsake Your precepts.

119:88  Give me life according to Your mercy, and I will keep the testimonies of Your mouth.

119:89  Lamed. Your Word is settled in Heaven forever, O Jehovah.

119:90  Your fidelity is to generation and generation; You founded the earth, and it stands.

119:91  They stand by Your judgments to this day, for all are Your servants.

119:92  If Your law had not been my delight, then I had perished in my grief.

119:93  I will never forget Your precepts; for with them You gave me life.

119:94  I am Yours save me; for I have sought Your precepts.

119:95  The wicked waited for me, to destroy me; I will muse on Your testimonies.

119:96  I have seen an end to all perfection; Your command is exceedingly broad.

119:97  Mem. Oh how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day.

119:98  You make me wiser than my enemies by Your commands; for they are forever mine.

119:99  I have more wisdom than all my teachers; for Your testimonies are a meditation to me.

119:100  I understand more than the aged, for I keep Your precepts.

119:101  I have kept my feet from every evil way, to keep Your word.

119:102  I turned not from Your judgments; for You have taught me.

119:103  How sweet are Your words to my palate! More than honey to my mouth!

119:104  By Your precepts I know; so then I hate every false way.

119:105  Nun. Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

119:106  I have sworn and I rise to it , to keep Your righteous judgments.

119:107  I am greatly afflicted; O Jehovah, give me life according to Your word.

119:108  Please, O Jehovah, accept the free offering of my mouth, and teach me Your judgments.

119:109  My life is in my hand continually, yet I do not forget Your law.

119:110  The wicked have laid a snare for me; yet I do not wander from Your precepts.

119:111  I have inherited Your testimonies forever; for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

119:112  I have bowed my heart to do Your statutes always to the end.

119:113  Samech. I hate the halfhearted; but I love Your law.

119:114  You are my covert and my shield; I hope in Your word.

119:115  Depart from me, O evildoers, for I will keep my God's commands.

119:116  Uphold me by Your word, that I may live; and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

119:117  Hold me up and I will be saved; and I will always look to Your statutes.

119:118  You have trampled all who go astray from Your statutes for their deceit is falsehood.

119:119  As dross You have made all the wicked of the earth to cease; so I love Your testimonies.

119:120  My flesh has shivered because of Your fear; and I have feared Your judgments.

119:121  Ayin. I have done the just and right thing ; do not leave me to my oppressors.

119:122  Be surety for Your servant for good; let not the proud oppress me.

119:123  My eyes fail for Your salvation, and for the word of Your righteousness.

119:124  Deal with Your servant by Your mercy; and teach me Your statutes.

119:125  I am Your servant; make me consider and I will know Your testimonies.

119:126  It is time for Jehovah to work; they have broken Your law.

119:127  So I have loved Your commands, more than gold, even fine gold.

119:128  So I count wholly right all the precepts; I have hated every false way.

119:129  Pe. Your testimonies are wonderful; so my soul keeps them.

119:130  The entering of Your word gives light, instructing the simple ones.

119:131  I opened my mouth and panted; for I longed for Your commands.

119:132  Turn to me and favor me, as is the way to those who love Your name.

119:133  Fix my steps in Your word; and let no evil rule over me.

119:134  Redeem me from the oppression of man; and I will keep Your precepts.

119:135  Make Your face shine on Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.

119:136  Rivers of waters run down my eyes for they do not keep Your law.

119:137  Tzaddi. O Jehovah, You are righteous, and Your judgments right.

119:138  You have enjoined Your testimonies as righteous and very faithful.

119:139  My zeal has eaten me up, for my enemies have forgotten Your word

119:140  Your word is pure and Your servant loves it.

119:141  I am small and despised; I do not forget Your precepts.

119:142  Your righteousness is forever, and Your law is truth.

119:143  Distress and anguish have found me; Your commands are my delight.

119:144  The righteousness of Your testimonies is everlasting; make me know and I will live.

119:145  Qoph. I cried with my whole heart; O Jehovah, answer me; I will keep Your statutes.

119:146  I cried to You; save me and I will keep Your testimonies.

119:147  I go before the dawn of day and cry; I hope in Your word.

119:148  My eyes go before the night watches, to meditate on Your word.

119:149  Hear my voice by Your mercy, O Jehovah; give me life by Your judgment.

119:150  The pursuers of mischief draw near; they are far from Your law.

119:151  You are near, O Jehovah, and all Your commands are truth.

119:152  Of old I have known from Your testimonies, for You have founded them forever.

119:153  Resh. Look on my affliction and deliver me; for I do not forget Your law.

119:154  Contend for my cause and redeem me; give me life according to Your word.

119:155  Salvation is far from the wicked, for they do not seek Your statutes.

119:156  O Jehovah, Your tender mercies are great; give me life according to Your judgments.

119:157  My persecutors and enemies are many; I do not turn from Your testimonies.

119:158  I saw the traitors and was grieved, because they did not keep Your word.

119:159  See how I love Your precepts, O Jehovah; give me life according to Your mercy.

119:160  The sum of Your word is true; every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever.

119:161  Shin. Princes have persecuted me without cause; but my heart has feared at Your word.

119:162  I rejoice at Your word, as one who finds great spoil.

119:163  I hate and despise lying; but I love Your law.

119:164  I praise You seven times a day because of Your righteous judgments.

119:165  Great peace is to those who love Your law, and there is no stumblingblock to them.

119:166  O Jehovah, I have hoped for Your salvation, and have done Your precepts.

119:167  My soul has kept Your testimonies, and I love them very much;

119:168  I have kept Your commands and Your testimonies, for all my ways are before You.

119:169  Tau. Let my cry come near You, O Jehovah; give me wisdom according to Your word.

119:170  Let my prayer come before You; deliver me according to Your word.

119:171  My lips shall pour forth praise when You have taught me Your statutes.

119:172  My tongue shall answer Your word, for all Your commands are righteousness.

119:173  Let Your hand help me; for I have chosen Your precepts

119:174  I have longed for Your salvation, O Jehovah; and Your law is my delight.

119:175  Let my soul live and it will praise You; and let Your judgments help me.

119:176  I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Your servant; for I do not forget Your commandments.
