Psalm 119:129–144

¹²⁹Thy testimonies are wonderful;

Therefore doth my soul keep them.

¹³⁰The opening of thy words giveth light;

It giveth understanding unto the simple.

¹³¹I opened wide my mouth, and panted;

For I longed for thy commandments.

¹³²Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me,

As thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.

¹³³Establish my footsteps in thy word;

And let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

¹³⁴Redeem me from the oppression of man:

So will I observe thy precepts.

¹³⁵Make thy face to shine upon thy servant;

And teach me thy statutes.

¹³⁶Streams of water run down mine eyes,

Because they observe not thy law.

¹³⁷Righteous art thou, O Jehovah,

And upright are thy judgments.

¹³⁸Thou hast commanded thy testimonies in righteousness

And very faithfulness.

¹³⁹My zeal hath consumed me,

Because mine adversaries have forgotten thy words.

¹⁴⁰Thy word is very pure;

Therefore thy servant loveth it.

¹⁴¹I am small and despised;

Yet do I not forget thy precepts.

¹⁴²Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,

And thy law is truth.

¹⁴³Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me;

Yet thy commandments are my delight.

¹⁴⁴Thy testimonies are righteous for ever:

Give me understanding, and I shall live.
