Psalm 119:89 - 119:136

« Psalm 118 | Psalm 119 | Psalm 120 »

ל Lamedh

Forever, O Yahweh,

Your word stands firm in heaven.

Your faithfulness endures from generation to generation;

You established the earth, and it stands.

They stand this day according to Your judgments,

For all things are Your slaves.

If Your law had not been my delight,

Then I would have perished in my affliction.

I will never forget Your precepts,

For by them You have revived me.

I am Yours, save me;

For I have sought Your precepts.

The wicked hope for me—to destroy me;

I shall perceive Your testimonies.

I have seen a limit to all perfection;

Your commandment is exceedingly broad.

מ Mem

Oh how I love Your law!

It is my meditation all the day.

Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies,

For they are mine forever.

I have more insight than all my teachers,

For Your testimonies are my meditation.

100

I perceive more than the aged,

Because I have observed Your precepts.

101

I have restrained my feet from every evil way,

That I may keep Your word.

102

I have not turned aside from Your judgments,

For You Yourself have taught me.

103

How sweet is Your word to my taste!

Sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104

From Your precepts I get perception;

Therefore I hate every false way.

נ Nun

105

Your word is a lamp to my feet

And a light to my path.

106

I have sworn and I have confirmed,

To keep Your righteous judgments.

107

I am exceedingly afflicted;

O Yahweh, revive me according to Your word.

108

Oh be pleased with the freewill offerings of my mouth, O Yahweh,

And teach me Your judgments.

109

My soul is continually in my hand,

Yet I do not forget Your law.

110

The wicked have laid a snare for me,

Yet I have not wandered from Your precepts.

111

I have inherited Your testimonies forever,

For they are the joy of my heart.

112

I have inclined my heart to do Your statutes

Forever, to the end.

ס Samekh

113

I hate those who are double‑minded,

But I love Your law.

114

You are my hiding place and my shield;

I wait for Your word.

115

Depart from me, evildoers,

That I may observe the commandments of my God.

116

Sustain me according to Your word, that I may live;

And do not put me to shame because of my hope.

117

Uphold me that I may be saved,

That I may have regard for Your statutes continually.

118

You have rejected all those who stray from Your statutes,

For their deceitfulness is a lie.

119

You remove all the wicked of the earth like dross;

Therefore I love Your testimonies.

120

My flesh quakes for dread of You,

And I am afraid of Your judgments.

ע Ayin

121

I have done justice and righteousness;

Do not leave me to my oppressors.

122

Be for Your slave a guarantee for good;

Do not let the arrogant oppress me.

123

My eyes fail with longing for Your salvation

And for Your righteous word.

124

Deal with Your slave according to Your lovingkindness

And teach me Your statutes.

125

I am Your slave; give me understanding,

That I may know Your testimonies.

126

It is time for Yahweh to act,

For they have broken Your law.

127

Therefore I love Your commandments

Above gold, even above fine gold.

128

Therefore I deem all Your precepts concerning everything to be right,

I hate every false way.

פ Pe

129

Your testimonies are wonderful;

Therefore my soul observes them.

130

The unfolding of Your words gives light;

It gives understanding to the simple.

131

I opened my mouth wide and panted,

For I longed for Your commandments.

132

Turn to me and be gracious to me,

According to Your judgment for those who love Your name.

133

Establish my steps in Your word,

And do not let any wickedness overpower me.

134

Redeem me from the oppression of man,

That I may keep Your precepts.

135

Make Your face shine upon Your slave,

And teach me Your statutes.

136

My eyes shed streams of water,

Because they do not keep Your law.
