Psalm 118:129–144

¹²⁹Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore my soul hath sought them.

¹³⁰The declaration of thy words giveth light: and giveth understanding to little ones.

¹³¹I opened my mouth, and panted: because I longed for thy commandments.

¹³²Look thou upon me, and have mercy on me according to the judgment of them that love thy name.

¹³³Direct my steps according to thy word: and let no iniquity have dominion over me.

¹³⁴Redeem me from the calumnies of men: that I may keep thy commandments.

¹³⁵Make thy face to shine upon thy servant: and teach me thy justifications.

¹³⁶My eyes have sent forth springs of water: because they have not kept thy law.

¹³⁷Thou art just, O Lord: and thy judgment is right.

¹³⁸Thou hast commanded justice thy testimonies: and thy truth exceedingly.

¹³⁹My zeal hath made me pine away: because my enemies forgot thy words.

¹⁴⁰Thy word is exceedingly refined: and thy servant hath loved it.

¹⁴¹I am very young and despised; but I forget not thy justifications.

¹⁴²Thy justice is justice for ever: and thy law is the truth.

¹⁴³Trouble and anguish have found me: thy commandments are my meditation.

¹⁴⁴Thy testimonies are justice for ever: give me understanding, and I shall live.
