Psalm 119:97 - 119:120

« Psalm 118 | Psalm 119 | Psalm 120 »

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.
