73 Your hands have made and fashioned me;
   give me understanding that I may learn your commandments.
74 Those who fear you shall see me and rejoice,
   because I have hoped in your word.
75 I know, O Lord, that your judgements are right,
   and that in faithfulness you have humbled me.
76 Let your steadfast love become my comfort
   according to your promise to your servant.
77 Let your mercy come to me, that I may live;
   for your law is my delight.
78 Let the arrogant be put to shame,
   because they have subverted me with guile;
   as for me, I will meditate on your precepts.
79 Let those who fear you turn to me,
   so that they may know your decrees.
80 May my heart be blameless in your statutes,
   so that I may not be put to shame.


81 My soul languishes for your salvation;
   I hope in your word.
82 My eyes fail with watching for your promise;
   I ask, ‘When will you comfort me?’
83 For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke,
   yet I have not forgotten your statutes.
84 How long must your servant endure?
   When will you judge those who persecute me?
85 The arrogant have dug pitfalls for me;
   they flout your law.
86 All your commandments are enduring;
   I am persecuted without cause; help me!
87 They have almost made an end of me on earth;
   but I have not forsaken your precepts.
88 In your steadfast love spare my life,
   so that I may keep the decrees of your mouth.


89 The Lord exists for ever;
   your word is firmly fixed in heaven.
90 Your faithfulness endures to all generations;
   you have established the earth, and it stands fast.
91 By your appointment they stand today,
   for all things are your servants.
92 If your law had not been my delight,
   I would have perished in my misery.
93 I will never forget your precepts,
   for by them you have given me life.
94 I am yours; save me,
   for I have sought your precepts.
95 The wicked lie in wait to destroy me,
   but I consider your decrees.
96 I have seen a limit to all perfection,
   but your commandment is exceedingly broad.


97 Oh, how I love your law!
   It is my meditation all day long.
98 Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies,
   for it is always with me.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers,
   for your decrees are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the aged,
   for I keep your precepts.
101 I hold back my feet from every evil way,
   in order to keep your word.
102 I do not turn away from your ordinances,
   for you have taught me.
103 How sweet are your words to my taste,
   sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104 Through your precepts I get understanding;
   therefore I hate every false way.


105 Your word is a lamp to my feet
   and a light to my path.
106 I have sworn an oath and confirmed it,
   to observe your righteous ordinances.
107 I am severely afflicted;
   give me life, O Lord, according to your word.
108 Accept my offerings of praise, O Lord,
   and teach me your ordinances.
109 I hold my life in my hand continually,
   but I do not forget your law.
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me,
   but I do not stray from your precepts.
111 Your decrees are my heritage for ever;
   they are the joy of my heart.
112 I incline my heart to perform your statutes
   for ever, to the end.
