Psalm 119:25–32

My soul clings to the dust;

give me life according to your word!

When I told of my ways, you answered me;

teach me your statutes!

Make me understand the way of your precepts,

and I will meditate on your wondrous works.

My soul melts away for sorrow;

strengthen me according to your word!

Put false ways far from me

and graciously teach me your law!

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;

I set your rules before me.

I cling to your testimonies, O Lord;

let me not be put to shame!

I will run in the way of your commandments

when you enlarge my heart!

I am laid low in the dust;

preserve my life according to your word.

I gave an account of my ways and you answered me;

teach me your decrees.

Cause me to understand the way of your precepts,

that I may meditate on your wonderful deeds.

My soul is weary with sorrow;

strengthen me according to your word.

Keep me from deceitful ways;

be gracious to me and teach me your law.

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;

I have set my heart on your laws.

I hold fast to your statutes, Lord;

do not let me be put to shame.

I run in the path of your commands,

for you have broadened my understanding.

My life is down in the dust;

give me life through your word.

I told you about my life,

and you answered me;

teach me your statutes.

Help me understand

the meaning of your precepts

so that I can meditate on your wonders.

I am weary from grief;

strengthen me through your word.

Keep me from the way of deceit

and graciously give me your instruction.

I have chosen the way of truth;

I have set your ordinances before me.

I cling to your decrees;

Lord, do not put me to shame.

I pursue the way of your commands,

for you broaden my understanding.

I lie in the dust;

revive me by your word.

I told you my plans, and you answered.

Now teach me your decrees.

Help me understand the meaning of your commandments,

and I will meditate on your wonderful deeds.

I weep with sorrow;

encourage me by your word.

Keep me from lying to myself;

give me the privilege of knowing your instructions.

I have chosen to be faithful;

I have determined to live by your regulations.

I cling to your laws.

Lord, don’t let me be put to shame!

I will pursue your commands,

for you expand my understanding.

My soul clings to the dust;

revive me according to your word.

I told of my ways, and you answered me;

teach me your statutes.

Make me understand the way of your precepts,

that I may meditate on your wonderful things.

My soul weeps because of grief;

strengthen me according to your word.

Remove from me the deceptive way,

and graciously give me your law.

I have chosen the faithful way;

I have set your ordinances before me.

I cling to your testimonies;

O Yahweh, do not let me be put to shame.

I will run the way of your commands,

for you will enlarge my heart.

DALETH.

My soul cleaveth unto the dust:

Quicken thou me according to thy word.

I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me:

Teach me thy statutes.

Make me to understand the way of thy precepts:

So shall I talk of thy wondrous works.

My soul melteth for heaviness:

Strengthen thou me according unto thy word.

Remove from me the way of lying:

And grant me thy law graciously.

I have chosen the way of truth:

Thy judgments have I laid before me.

I have stuck unto thy testimonies:

O Lord, put me not to shame.

I will run the way of thy commandments,

When thou shalt enlarge my heart.
