Psalm 119:105–128

Nun

¹⁰⁵Your word is a lamp to my feet

and a light to my path.

¹⁰⁶I have sworn an oath and confirmed it,

to heed your righteous ordinances.^h

¹⁰⁷I am very much afflicted;

O Yahweh, revive me according to your word.

¹⁰⁸Please accept the freewill offerings of my mouth, O Yahweh,

and teach me your ordinances.

¹⁰⁹My life is in dangerⁱ continually,

yet I do not forget your law.

¹¹⁰The wicked have laid a snare for me,

yet I do not wander from your precepts.

¹¹¹I have taken as my own your testimonies forever,

for they are the joy of my heart.

¹¹²I have inclined my heart to do your statutes

forever, to the end.

Samek

¹¹³I hate the double-minded,^j

but I love your law.

¹¹⁴You are my hiding place and my shield;

I hope in your word.

¹¹⁵Turn aside from me, you evildoers,

for I will keep the commands of my God.

¹¹⁶Sustain me according to your word,^k that I may live,

and do not let me be ashamed of my hope.

¹¹⁷Uphold me, that I may be delivered,

and have regard for your statutes continually.

¹¹⁸You reject all who stray from your statutes,

for their deceit is a breach of faith.

¹¹⁹You remove all the wicked of the earth like dross,

therefore I love your testimonies.

¹²⁰My flesh trembles for fear of you,

and I am afraid of your judgments.

ʽAyin

¹²¹I have done justice and righteousness;^l

do not leave me to my oppressors.

¹²²Pledge good for your servant;

do not let the arrogant oppress me.

¹²³My eyes long for^m your salvation,

and your righteous word.ⁿ

¹²⁴Deal with your servant according to your loyal love,

and teach me your statutes.

¹²⁵I am your servant; give me understanding,

that I may know your statutes.

¹²⁶It is time for Yahweh to act,^o

for they have broken your law.

¹²⁷Therefore I love your commands

more than gold, even fine gold.

¹²⁸Therefore all your precepts of everything I regard as right;

I hate every false way.
