ALEPH. BlessedH835 are the undefiledH8549 in the way,H1870 who walkH1980 in the lawH8451 of the LORD.H3068
2
BlessedH835 are they that keepH5341 his testimonies,H5713 and that seekH1875 him with the wholeH3605 heart.H3820
3
They alsoH637 doH6466 noH3808 iniquity:H5766 they walkH1980 in his ways.H1870
4
You have commandedH6680 us to keepH8104 your preceptsH6490 diligently.H3966
5
O that my waysH1870 were directedH3559 to keepH8104 your statutes!H2706
6
ThenH227 shall I not be ashamed,H954 when I have respectH5027 to allH3605 your commandments.H4687
7
I will praiseH3034 you with uprightnessH3476 of heart,H3824 when I shall have learnedH3925 your righteousH6664 judgments.H4941
8
I will keepH8104 your statutes:H2706 O forsakeH5800 me not utterly.H3966
9
BETH. WherewithalH4100 shall a youngH5288 man cleanseH2135 his way?H734 by taking heedH8104 thereto according to your word.H1697
10
With my wholeH3605 heartH3820 have I soughtH1875 you: O let me not wanderH7686 from your commandments.H4687
11
Your wordH565 have I hidH6845 in my heart,H3820 that I might not sinH2398 against you.
12
BlessedH1288 are you, O LORD:H3068 teachH3925 me your statutes.H2706
13
With my lipsH8193 have I declaredH5608 allH3605 the judgmentsH4941 of your mouth.H6310
14
I have rejoicedH7797 in the wayH1870 of your testimonies,H5715 as much as in allH3605 riches.H1952
15
I will meditateH7878 in your precepts,H6490 and have respectH5027 to your ways.H734
16
I will delightH8173 myself in your statutes:H2708 I will not forgetH7911 your word.H1697
17
GIMEL. DealH1580 bountifullyH1580 with your servant,H5650 that I may live,H2421 and keepH8104 your word.H1697
18
OpenH1540 you my eyes,H5869 that I may beholdH5027 wondrousH6381 things out of your law.H8451
19
I am a strangerH1616 in the earth:H776 hideH5641 not your commandmentsH4687 from me.
20
My soulH5315 breaksH1638 for the longingH8375 that it has to your judgmentsH4941 at allH3605 times.H6256
21
You have rebukedH1605 the proudH2086 that are cursed,H779 which do errH7686 from your commandments.H4687
22
RemoveH1556 from me reproachH2781 and contempt;H937 for I have keptH5341 your testimonies.H5713
23
PrincesH8269 alsoH1571 did sitH3427 and speakH1696 against me: but your servantH5650 did meditateH7878 in your statutes.H2706
24
Your testimoniesH5713 also are my delightH8191 and my counsellors.H6098
25
My soulH5315 sticksH1692 to the dust:H6083 quickenH2421 you me according to your word.H1697
26
I have declaredH5608 my ways,H1870 and you heardH6030 me: teachH3925 me your statutes.H2706
27
Make me to understandH995 the wayH1870 of your precepts:H6490 so shall I talkH7878 of your wondrousH6381 works.
28
My soulH5315 meltsH1811 for heaviness:H8424 strengthenH6965 you me according to your word.H1697
29
RemoveH5493 from me the wayH1870 of lying:H8267 and grantH5414 me your lawH8451 graciously.H2603
30
I have chosenH977 the wayH1870 of truth:H530 your judgmentsH4941 have I laidH7737 before me.
31
I have stuckH1692 to your testimonies:H5715 O LORD,H3068 put me not to shame.H954
32
I will runH7323 the wayH1870 of your commandments,H4687 whenH3588 you shall enlargeH7337 my heart.H3820
33
HE. TeachH3384 me, O LORD,H3068 the wayH1870 of your statutes;H2706 and I shall keepH5341 it to the end.H6118
34
Give me understanding,H995 and I shall keepH5341 your law;H8451 yes, I shall observeH8104 it with my wholeH3605 heart.H3820
35
Make me to goH1869 in the pathH5410 of your commandments;H4687 for therein do I delight.H2654
36
InclineH5186 my heartH3820 to your testimonies,H5715 and not to covetousness.H1215
37
TurnH5674 away my eyesH5869 from beholdingH7200 vanity;H7723 and quickenH2421 you me in your way.H1870
38
EstablishH6965 your wordH565 to your servant,H5650 whoH834 is devoted to your fear.H3374
39
TurnH5674 away my reproachH2781 whichH834 I fear:H3025 for your judgmentsH4941 are good.H2896
40
Behold,H2009 I have longedH8373 after your precepts:H6490 quickenH2421 me in your righteousness.H6666
41
VAU. Let your merciesH2617 comeH935 also to me, O LORD,H3068 even your salvation,H8668 according to your word.H565
42
So shall I have with whichH1697 to answerH6030 him that reproachesH2778 me: for I trustH982 in your word.H1697
43
And takeH5337 not the wordH1697 of truthH571 utterlyH3966 out of my mouth;H6310 for I have hopedH3176 in your judgments.H4941
44
So shall I keepH8104 your lawH8451 continuallyH8548 for everH5769 and ever.H5703
45
And I will walkH1980 at liberty:H7342 for I seekH1875 your precepts.H6490
46
I will speakH1696 of your testimoniesH5713 also beforeH5048 kings,H4428 and will not be ashamed.H954
47
And I will delightH8173 myself in your commandments,H4687 whichH834 I have loved.H157
48
My handsH3709 also will I liftH5375 up to your commandments,H4687 whichH834 I have loved;H157 and I will meditateH7878 in your statutes.H2706
49
RememberH2142 the wordH1697 to your servant,H5650 on whichH834 you have caused me to hope.H3176
50
ThisH2063 is my comfortH5162 in my affliction:H6040 for your wordH565 has quickenedH2421 me.
51
The proudH2086 have had me greatlyH3966 in derision:H3887 yet have I not declinedH5186 from your law.H8451
52
I rememberedH2142 your judgmentsH4941 of old,H5769 O LORD;H3068 and have comfortedH5162 myself.
53
HorrorH2152 has takenH270 holdH270 on me because of the wickedH7563 that forsakeH5800 your law.H8451
54
Your statutesH2706 have beenH1961 my songsH2158 in the houseH1004 of my pilgrimage.H4033
55
I have rememberedH2142 your name,H8034 O LORD,H3068 in the night,H3915 and have keptH8104 your law.H8451
56
ThisH2063 I had,H1961 becauseH3588 I keptH5341 your precepts.H6490
57
CHETH. You are my portion,H2506 O LORD:H3068 I have saidH559 that I would keepH8104 your words.H1697
58
I entreatedH2470 your favorH6440 with my wholeH3605 heart:H3820 be mercifulH2603 to me according to your word.H565
59
I thoughtH2803 on my ways,H1870 and turnedH7725 my feetH7272 to your testimonies.H5713
60
I made haste,H2363 and delayedH4102 not to keepH8104 your commandments.H4687
61
The bandsH2256 of the wickedH7563 have robbedH5749 me: but I have not forgottenH7911 your law.H8451
62
At midnightH2676 H3915 I will riseH6965 to give thanksH3034 to you becauseH5921 of your righteousH6664 judgments.H4941
63
I am a companionH2270 of allH3605 them that fearH3372 you, and of them that keepH8104 your precepts.H6490
64
The earth,H776 O LORD,H3068 is fullH4390 of your mercy:H2617 teachH3925 me your statutes.H2706
65
You have dealtH6213 wellH2896 with your servant,H5650 O LORD,H3068 according to your word.H1697
66
TeachH3925 me goodH2898 judgmentH2940 and knowledge:H1847 for I have believedH539 your commandments.H4687
67
BeforeH2962 I was afflictedH6031 I wentH7683 astray:H7683 but nowH6258 have I keptH8104 your word.H565
68
You are good,H2896 and do good;H2895 teachH3925 me your statutes.H2706
69
The proudH2086 have forgedH2950 a lieH3576 againstH5921 me: but I will keepH5341 your preceptsH6490 with my wholeH3605 heart.H3820
70
Their heartH3820 is as fatH2954 as grease;H2459 but I delightH8173 in your law.H8451
71
It is goodH2896 for me that I have been afflicted;H6031 that I might learnH3925 your statutes.H2706
72
The lawH8451 of your mouthH6310 is betterH2896 to me than thousandsH505 of goldH2091 and silver.H3701
73
Your handsH3027 have madeH6213 me and fashionedH3559 me: give me understanding,H995 that I may learnH3925 your commandments.H4687
74
They that fearH3373 you will be gladH8056 when they seeH7200 me; becauseH3588 I have hopedH3176 in your word.H1697
75
I know,H3045 O LORD,H3068 that your judgmentsH4941 are right,H6664 and that you in faithfulnessH530 have afflictedH6031 me.
76
Let, I prayH4994 you, your mercifulH2617 kindnessH2617 be for my comfort,H5162 according to your wordH565 to your servant.H5650
77
Let your tender merciesH7356 comeH935 to me, that I may live:H2421 for your lawH8451 is my delight.H8191
78
Let the proudH2086 be ashamed;H954 for they dealt perverselyH5791 with me withoutH8267 a cause:H8267 but I will meditateH7878 in your precepts.H6490
79
Let those that fearH3373 you turnH7725 to me, and those that have knownH3045 your testimonies.H5713
80
Let my heartH3820 be soundH8549 in your statutes;H2706 that I be not ashamed.H954
81
CAPH. My soulH5315 faintsH3615 for your salvation:H8668 but I hopeH3176 in your word.H1697
82
My eyesH5869 failH3615 for your word,H565 saying,H559 WhenH4970 will you comfortH5162 me?
83
For I am becomeH1961 like a bottleH4997 in the smoke;H7008 yet do I not forgetH7911 your statutes.H2706
84
HowH4100 many are the daysH3117 of your servant?H5650 whenH4970 will you executeH6213 judgmentH4941 on them that persecuteH7291 me?
85
The proudH2086 have digH3738 pitsH7882 for me, whichH834 are not after your law.H8451
86
AllH3605 your commandmentsH4687 are faithful:H530 they persecuteH7291 me wrongfully;H8267 helpH5826 you me.
87
They had almostH4592 consumedH3615 me on earth;H776 but I forsookH5800 not your precepts.H6490
88
QuickenH2421 me after your loving kindness;H2617 so shall I keepH8104 the testimonyH5715 of your mouth.H6310
89
For ever,H5769 O LORD,H3068 your wordH1697 is settledH5324 in heaven.H8064
90
Your faithfulnessH530 is to all generations:H1755 you have establishedH3559 the earth,H776 and it stays.H5975
91
They continueH5975 this dayH3117 according to your ordinances:H4941 for allH3605 are your servants.H5650
92
UnlessH3884 your lawH8451 had been my delights,H8191 I should thenH227 have perishedH6 in my affliction.H6040
93
I will neverH5769 H3808 forgetH7911 your precepts:H6490 for with them you have quickenedH2421 me.
94
I am yours, saveH3467 me: for I have soughtH1875 your precepts.H6490
95
The wickedH7563 have waitedH6960 for me to destroyH6 me: but I will considerH995 your testimonies.H5713
96
I have seenH7200 an endH7093 of allH3605 perfection:H8502 but your commandmentH4687 is exceedingH3966 broad.H7342
97
MEM. O howH4100 I loveH157 your law!H8451 it is my meditationH7881 allH3605 the day.H3117
98
You through your commandmentsH4687 have made me wiserH2449 than my enemies:H341 for they are everH5769 with me.
99
I have more understandingH7919 than allH3605 my teachers:H3925 for your testimoniesH5715 are my meditation.H7881
100
I understandH995 more than the ancients,H2204 becauseH3588 I keepH5341 your precepts.H6490
101
I have refrainedH3607 my feetH7272 from everyH3605 evilH7451 way,H734 that I might keepH8104 your word.H1697
102
I have not departedH5493 from your judgments:H4941 for you have taughtH3384 me.
103
HowH4100 sweetH4452 are your wordsH565 to my taste!H2441 yes, sweeter than honeyH1706 to my mouth!H6310
104
Through your preceptsH6490 I get understanding:H995 thereforeH5921 H3651 I hateH8130 everyH3605 falseH8267 way.H734
105
NUN. Your wordH1697 is a lampH5216 to my feet,H7272 and a lightH216 to my path.H5410
106
I have sworn,H7650 and I will performH6965 it, that I will keepH8104 your righteousH6664 judgments.H4941
107
I am afflictedH6031 veryH5704 H3966 much:H3966 quickenH2421 me, O LORD,H3068 according to your word.H1697
108
Accept,H7521 I beseechH4994 you, the freewillH5071 offerings of my mouth,H6310 O LORD,H3068 and teachH3925 me your judgments.H4941
109
My soulH5315 is continuallyH8548 in my hand:H3709 yet do I not forgetH7911 your law.H8451
110
The wickedH7563 have laidH5414 a snareH6341 for me: yet I erredH8582 not from your precepts.H6490
111
Your testimoniesH5715 have I taken as an heritageH5157 for ever:H5769 for they are the rejoicingH8342 of my heart.H3820
112
I have inclinedH5186 my heartH3820 to performH6213 your statutesH2706 always,H5769 even to the end.H6118
113
SAMECH. I hateH8130 vain thoughts:H5588 but your lawH8451 do I love.H157
114
You are my hidingH5643 place and my shield:H4043 I hopeH3176 in your word.H1697
115
DepartH5493 from me, you evildoers:H7489 for I will keepH5341 the commandmentsH4687 of my God.H430
116
UpholdH5564 me according to your word,H565 that I may live:H2421 and let me not be ashamedH954 of my hope.H7664
117
HoldH5582 you me up, and I shall be safe:H3467 and I will have respectH8159 to your statutesH2706 continually.H8548
118
You have troddenH5541 down allH3605 them that errH7686 from your statutes:H2706 for their deceitH8649 is falsehood.H8267
119
You putH7673 away allH3605 the wickedH7563 of the earthH776 like dross:H5509 thereforeH3651 I loveH157 your testimonies.H5713
120
My fleshH1320 tremblesH5568 for fearH6343 of you; and I am afraidH3372 of your judgments.H4941
121
I have doneH6213 judgmentH4941 and justice:H6664 leaveH5117 me not to my oppressors.H6231
122
Be suretyH6148 for your servantH5650 for good:H2896 let not the proudH2086 oppressH6231 me.
123
My eyesH5869 failH3615 for your salvation,H3444 and for the wordH565 of your righteousness.H6664
124
DealH6213 with your servantH5650 according to your mercy,H2617 and teachH3925 me your statutes.H2706
125
I am your servant;H5650 give me understanding,H995 that I may knowH3045 your testimonies.H5713
126
It is timeH6256 for you, LORD,H3068 to work:H6213 for they have made voidH6565 your law.H8451
127
ThereforeH5921 H3651 I loveH157 your commandmentsH4687 above gold;H2091 yes, above fine gold.H6337
128
ThereforeH5921 H3651 I esteem allH3605 your preceptsH6490 concerning allH3605 things to be right;H3474 and I hateH8130 everyH3605 falseH8267 way.H734
129
PE. Your testimoniesH5715 are wonderful:H6382 thereforeH5921 H3651 does my soulH5315 keepH5341 them.
130
The entranceH6608 of your wordsH1697 gives light;H216 it gives understandingH995 to the simple.H6612
131
I openedH6473 my mouth,H6310 and panted:H7602 for I longedH2968 for your commandments.H4687
132
LookH6437 you on me, and be mercifulH2603 to me, as you useH4941 to do to those that loveH157 your name.H8034
133
OrderH3559 my stepsH6471 in your word:H565 and let not anyH3605 iniquityH205 have dominionH7980 over me.
134
DeliverH6299 me from the oppressionH6233 of man:H120 soH3602 will I keepH8104 your precepts.H6490
135
Make your faceH6440 to shineH215 on your servant;H5650 and teachH3925 me your statutes.H2706
136
RiversH6388 of watersH4325 runH3381 down my eyes,H5869 becauseH5921 they keepH8104 not your law.H8451
137
TZADDI. RighteousH6662 are you, O LORD,H3068 and uprightH3477 are your judgments.H4941
138
Your testimoniesH5713 that you have commandedH6680 are righteousH6664 and veryH3966 faithful.H530
139
My zealH7068 has consumedH6789 me, becauseH3588 my enemiesH6862 have forgottenH7911 your words.H1697
140
Your wordH565 is veryH3966 pure:H6884 therefore your servantH5650 lovesH157 it.
141
I am smallH6810 and despised:H959 yet do not I forgetH7911 your precepts.H6490
142
Your righteousnessH6666 is an everlastingH5769 righteousness,H6664 and your lawH8451 is the truth.H571
143
TroubleH6862 and anguishH4689 have takenH4672 holdH4672 on me: yet your commandmentsH4687 are my delights.H8191
144
The righteousnessH6664 of your testimoniesH5715 is everlasting:H5769 give me understanding,H995 and I shall live.H2421
145
KOPH. I criedH7121 with my whole heart;H3820 hearH6030 me, O LORD:H3068 I will keepH5341 your statutes.H2706
146
I criedH7121 to you; saveH3467 me, and I shall keepH8104 your testimonies.H5713
147
I preventedH6923 the dawningH5399 of the morning, and cried:H7768 I hopedH3176 in your word.H1697
148
My eyesH5869 preventH6923 the night watches,H821 that I might meditateH7878 in your word.H565
149
HearH8085 my voiceH6963 according to your loving kindness:H2617 O LORD,H3068 quickenH2421 me according to your judgment.H4941
150
They draw nearH7126 that followH7291 after mischief:H2154 they are farH7368 from your law.H8451
151
You are near,H7138 O LORD;H3068 and allH3605 your commandmentsH4687 are truth.H571
152
Concerning your testimonies,H5713 I have knownH3045 of oldH6924 that you have foundedH3245 them for ever.H5769
153
ConsiderH7200 my affliction,H6040 and deliverH2502 me: for I do not forgetH7911 your law.H8451
154
PleadH7378 my cause,H7379 and deliverH1350 me: quickenH2421 me according to your word.H565
155
SalvationH3444 is farH7350 from the wicked:H7563 for they seekH1875 not your statutes.H2706
156
GreatH7227 are your tender mercies,H7356 O LORD:H3068 quickenH2421 me according to your judgments.H4941
157
ManyH7227 are my persecutorsH7291 and my enemies;H6862 yet do I not declineH5186 from your testimonies.H5715
158
I beheldH7200 the transgressors,H898 and was grieved;H6962 becauseH834 they keptH8104 not your word.H565
159
ConsiderH7200 howH3588 I loveH157 your precepts:H6490 quickenH2421 me, O LORD,H3068 according to your loving kindness.H2617
160
Your wordH1697 is trueH571 from the beginning:H7218 and everyH3605 one of your righteousH6664 judgmentsH4941 endures for ever.H5769
161
PrincesH8269 have persecutedH7291 me withoutH2600 a cause:H2600 but my heartH3820 stands in aweH6342 of your word.H1697
162
I rejoiceH7797 atH5921 your word,H565 as one that findsH4672 greatH7227 spoil.H7998
163
I hateH8130 and abhorH8581 lying:H8267 but your lawH8451 do I love.H157
164
SevenH7651 times a dayH3117 do I praiseH1984 you becauseH5921 of your righteousH6664 judgments.H4941
165
GreatH7227 peaceH7965 have they which loveH157 your law:H8451 and nothingH369 shall offendH4383 them.
166
LORD,H3068 I have hopedH7663 for your salvation,H3444 and doneH6213 your commandments.H4687
167
My soulH5315 has keptH8104 your testimonies;H5713 and I loveH157 them exceedingly.H3966
168
I have keptH8104 your preceptsH6490 and your testimonies:H5713 for allH3605 my waysH1870 are beforeH5048 you.
169
Let my cryH7440 comeH7126 nearH7126 beforeH6440 you, O LORD:H3068 give me understandingH995 according to your word.H1697
170
Let my supplicationH8467 comeH935 beforeH6440 you: deliverH5337 me according to your word.H565
171
My lipsH8193 shall utterH5042 praise,H8416 whenH3588 you have taughtH3925 me your statutes.H2706
172
My tongueH3956 shall speakH6030 of your word:H565 for allH3605 your commandmentsH4687 are righteousness.H6664
173
Let your handH3027 helpH5826 me; for I have chosenH977 your precepts.H6490
174
I have longedH8373 for your salvation,H3444 O LORD;H3068 and your lawH8451 is my delight.H8191
175
Let my soulH5315 live,H2421 and it shall praiseH1984 you; and let your judgmentsH4941 helpH5826 me.
176
I have goneH8582 astrayH8582 like a lostH6 sheep;H7716 seekH1245 your servant;H5650 for I do not forgetH7911 your commandments.H4687
