Psalm 119:97–112

Mem

⁹⁷Oh how I ^alove Your law!

It is my ^bmeditation all the day.

⁹⁸Your ^acommandments make me wiser than my enemies,

For they are ¹mine forever.

⁹⁹I have more insight than all my teachers,

For Your testimonies are my ^ameditation.

¹⁰⁰I perceive ^amore than the aged,

Because I have ^bobserved Your precepts.

¹⁰¹I have ^arestrained my feet from every evil way,

That I may keep Your word.

¹⁰²I have not ^aturned aside from Your judgments,

For You Yourself have taught me.

¹⁰³How ^asweet is Your ¹word to my ²taste!

Sweeter than honey to my mouth!

¹⁰⁴From Your precepts I ^aget perception;

Therefore I ^bhate every false way.

Nun

¹⁰⁵Your word is a ^alamp to my feet

And a light to my path.

¹⁰⁶I have ^asworn and I have confirmed,

To keep Your righteous judgments.

¹⁰⁷I am exceedingly ^aafflicted;

O Yahweh, ^1brevive me according to Your word.

¹⁰⁸Oh be pleased with the ^afreewill offerings of my mouth, O Yahweh,

And ^bteach me Your judgments.

¹⁰⁹My ^asoul is continually ¹in my hand,

Yet I do not ^bforget Your law.

¹¹⁰The wicked have ^alaid a snare for me,

Yet I have not ^bwandered from Your precepts.

¹¹¹I have ^ainherited Your testimonies forever,

For they are the ^bjoy of my heart.

¹¹²I have ^ainclined my heart to do Your statutes

Forever, ^bto the end.
