ו Waw

41 May your unfailing lovef come to me, Lord,

your salvation, according to your promise;g

42 then I can answerh anyone who taunts me,i

for I trust in your word.

43 Never take your word of truth from my mouth,j

for I have put my hopek in your laws.

44 I will always obey your law,l

for ever and ever.

45 I will walk about in freedom,

for I have sought out your precepts.m

46 I will speak of your statutes before kingsn

and will not be put to shame,o

47 for I delightp in your commands

because I love them.q

48 I reach out for your commands, which I love,

that I may meditater on your decrees.

ז Zayin

49 Remember your words to your servant,

for you have given me hope.t

50 My comfort in my suffering is this:

Your promise preserves my life.u

51 The arrogant mock mev unmercifully,

but I do not turnw from your law.

52 I remember,x Lord, your ancient laws,

and I find comfort in them.

53 Indignation grips mey because of the wicked,

who have forsaken your law.z

54 Your decrees are the theme of my songa

wherever I lodge.

55 In the night, Lord, I rememberb your name,

that I may keep your law.c

56 This has been my practice:

I obey your precepts.d

ח Heth

57 You are my portion,e Lord;

I have promised to obey your words.f

58 I have soughtg your face with all my heart;

be gracious to meh according to your promise.i

59 I have considered my waysj

and have turned my steps to your statutes.

60 I will hasten and not delay

to obey your commands.k

61 Though the wicked bind me with ropes,

I will not forgetl your law.

62 At midnightm I rise to give you thanks

for your righteous laws.n

63 I am a friend to all who fear you,o

to all who follow your precepts.p

64 The earth is filled with your love,q Lord;

teach me your decrees.r

ט Teth

65 Do goods to your servant

according to your word,t Lord.

66 Teach me knowledgeu and good judgment,

for I trust your commands.

67 Before I was afflictedv I went astray,w

but now I obey your word.x

68 You are good,y and what you do is good;

teach me your decrees.z

69 Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies,a

I keep your precepts with all my heart.

70 Their hearts are callousb and unfeeling,

but I delight in your law.

71 It was good for me to be afflictedc

so that I might learn your decrees.

72 The law from your mouth is more precious to me

than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.d

י Yodh

73 Your hands made mee and formed me;

give me understanding to learn your commands.

74 May those who fear you rejoicef when they see me,

for I have put my hope in your word.g

75 I know, Lord, that your laws are righteous,h

and that in faithfulnessi you have afflicted me.

76 May your unfailing lovej be my comfort,

according to your promisek to your servant.

77 Let your compassionl come to me that I may live,

for your law is my delight.m

78 May the arrogantn be put to shame for wronging me without cause;o

but I will meditate on your precepts.

79 May those who fear you turn to me,

those who understand your statutes.p

80 May I wholeheartedly followq your decrees,r

that I may not be put to shame.s

כ Kaph

81 My soul faintst with longing for your salvation,u

but I have put my hopev in your word.

82 My eyes fail,w looking for your promise;x

I say, “When will you comfort me?”

83 Though I am like a wineskin in the smoke,

I do not forgety your decrees.

84 How longz must your servant wait?

When will you punish my persecutors?a

85 The arrogantb dig pitsc to trap me,

contrary to your law.

86 All your commands are trustworthy;d

help me,e for I am being persecutedf without cause.g

87 They almost wiped me from the earth,

but I have not forsakenh your precepts.

88 In your unfailing lovei preserve my life,j

that I may obey the statutesk of your mouth.

ל Lamedh

89 Your word, Lord, is eternal;l

it stands firm in the heavens.

90 Your faithfulnessm continues through all generations;n

you established the earth, and it endures.o

91 Your laws endurep to this day,

for all things serve you.q

92 If your law had not been my delight,r

I would have perished in my affliction.s

93 I will never forgett your precepts,

for by them you have preserved my life.u

94 Save me,v for I am yours;

I have sought out your precepts.w

95 The wicked are waiting to destroy me,x

but I will ponder your statutes.y

96 To all perfection I see a limit,

but your commands are boundless.z
