Psalms 119:131-176

VIN(i) 131 I open my mouth and pant as I long for your commands. 132 Turn to me, and have mercy on me, as you always do to those who love your name. 133 Fix my steps in Your word; and let no evil rule over me. 134 Redeem me from the oppression of man, that I may keep your precepts. 135 Make your face shine upon your servant, and teach me your statutes. 136 Streams of waters flowed down my eyes when I kept not your law. 137 {Tsadi} Righteous art thou, O LORD, and true is thy judgment. 138 You have commanded Your statutes in righteousness; they are fully trustworthy. 139 My zeal wears me out, because my enemies ignore your words. 140 Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them. 141 I am small and despised. I do not forget your precepts. 142 Your righteousness is forever, and Your law is truth. 143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me, but Your commandments are my delight. 144 Your laws are righteous forever. Give me understanding that I may live. 145 I cried with all my heart. Answer me, O LORD! I will observe your statutes. 146 I call out to You; O save me, And I will keep Your testimonies." 147 I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words. 148 My eyes stay open through the night watches, that I might meditate on your word. 149 Hear my voice according to your loving kindness. Give me life, O LORD, according to your ordinances. 150 Those who pursue a wicked purpose draw near; they are far from your law. 151 You are near, O LORD, and all your commands are truth. 152 Of old I have known from your laws that you have founded them forever. 153 Resh. Look on my affliction and deliver me; for I do not forget Your law. 154 Defend my case and redeem me; revive me according to your promise. 155 Salvation is far from the wicked, for they do not seek your statutes. 156 Your mercies are great, O LORD; preserve my life according to your ordinances. 157 Many are they that persecute me and oppress me; but I have not declined from Your testimonies. 158 I look at the faithless with loathing, because they do not observe your word. 159 See how I love your precepts; enliven me, O Yah Veh, according to your mercy. 160 All of your words are truth. Every one of your righteous ordinances endures forever. 161 Princes persecute me without cause, but my heart trembles because of your word. 162 I rejoice at your word, as one who finds great spoil. 163 I hate and abhor falsehood but I love Your law. 164 Seven times in a day I praise You For Your righteous ordinances. 165 Great peace have they who love thy law: and nothing shall cause them to stumble. 166 I hope for your salvation, O LORD, and do your commands. 167 I obey your laws and love them exceedingly. 168 I have obeyed your precepts and your testimonies, for all my ways are before you. 169 Let my cry come before you, O LORD; give me understanding according to your word. 170 Let my supplication come before you: deliver me according to your word. 171 May my lips utter praise, for you teach me your statutes. 172 Let my tongue sing of your word, for all your commandments are righteousness. 173 Let your hand be ready to help me, for I have chosen your precepts. 174 I long for your salvation, O LORD, and your law is my delight. 175 Let me live that it may praise you. May your ordinances help me. 176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Your servant; for I have not forgotten Your commandments.
