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.


113 I hate the double-minded,
   but I love your law.
114 You are my hiding-place and my shield;
   I hope in your word.
115 Go away from me, you evildoers,
   that I may keep the commandments of my God.
116 Uphold me according to your promise, that I may live,
   and let me not be put to shame in my hope.
117 Hold me up, that I may be safe
   and have regard for your statutes continually.
118 You spurn all who go astray from your statutes;
   for their cunning is in vain.
119 All the wicked of the earth you count as dross;
   therefore I love your decrees.
120 My flesh trembles for fear of you,
   and I am afraid of your judgements.


121 I have done what is just and right;
   do not leave me to my oppressors.
122 Guarantee your servant’s well-being;
   do not let the godless oppress me.
123 My eyes fail from watching for your salvation,
   and for the fulfilment of your righteous promise.
124 Deal with your servant according to your steadfast love,
   and teach me your statutes.
125 I am your servant; give me understanding,
   so that I may know your decrees.
126 It is time for the Lord to act,
   for your law has been broken.
127 Truly I love your commandments
   more than gold, more than fine gold.
128 Truly I direct my steps by all your precepts;*
   I hate every false way.


129 Your decrees are wonderful;
   therefore my soul keeps them.
130 The unfolding of your words gives light;
   it imparts understanding to the simple.
131 With open mouth I pant,
   because I long for your commandments.
132 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
   as is your custom towards those who love your name.
133 Keep my steps steady according to your promise,
   and never let iniquity have dominion over me.
134 Redeem me from human oppression,
   that I may keep your precepts.
135 Make your face shine upon your servant,
   and teach me your statutes.
136 My eyes shed streams of tears
   because your law is not kept.


137 You are righteous, O Lord,
   and your judgements are right.
138 You have appointed your decrees in righteousness
   and in all faithfulness.
139 My zeal consumes me
   because my foes forget your words.
140 Your promise is well tried,
   and your servant loves it.
141 I am small and despised,
   yet I do not forget your precepts.
142 Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
   and your law is the truth.
143 Trouble and anguish have come upon me,
   but your commandments are my delight.
144 Your decrees are righteous for ever;
   give me understanding that I may live.


145 With my whole heart I cry; answer me, O Lord.
   I will keep your statutes.
146 I cry to you; save me,
   that I may observe your decrees.
147 I rise before dawn and cry for help;
   I put my hope in your words.
148 My eyes are awake before each watch of the night,
   that I may meditate on your promise.
149 In your steadfast love hear my voice;
   O Lord, in your justice preserve my life.
150 Those who persecute me with evil purpose draw near;
   they are far from your law.
151 Yet you are near, O Lord,
   and all your commandments are true.
152 Long ago I learned from your decrees
   that you have established them for ever.


153 Look on my misery and rescue me,
   for I do not forget your law.
154 Plead my cause and redeem me;
   give me life according to your promise.
155 Salvation is far from the wicked,
   for they do not seek your statutes.
156 Great is your mercy, O Lord;
   give me life according to your justice.
157 Many are my persecutors and my adversaries,
   yet I do not swerve from your decrees.
158 I look at the faithless with disgust,
   because they do not keep your commands.
159 Consider how I love your precepts;
   preserve my life according to your steadfast love.
160 The sum of your word is truth;
   and every one of your righteous ordinances endures for ever.


161 Princes persecute me without cause,
   but my heart stands in awe of your words.
162 I rejoice at your word
   like one who finds great spoil.
163 I hate and abhor falsehood,
   but I love your law.
164 Seven times a day I praise you
   for your righteous ordinances.
165 Great peace have those who love your law;
   nothing can make them stumble.
166 I hope for your salvation, O Lord,
   and I fulfil your commandments.
167 My soul keeps your decrees;
   I love them exceedingly.
168 I keep your precepts and decrees,
   for all my ways are before you.


169 Let my cry come before you, O Lord;
   give me understanding according to your word.
170 Let my supplication come before you;
   deliver me according to your promise.
171 My lips will pour forth praise,
   because you teach me your statutes.
172 My tongue will sing of your promise,
   for all your commandments are right.
173 Let your hand be ready to help me,
   for I have chosen your precepts.
174 I long for your salvation, O Lord,
   and your law is my delight.
175 Let me live that I may praise you,
   and let your ordinances help me.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek out your servant,
   for I do not forget your commandments.
