Psalm 119

Nun: A Lamp for My Feet

105 Your words are a lamp for my feet
    and a light for my path.
106 I have sworn and affirmed
    that I will keep your righteous judgments.
107 I have suffered much.
    Lord, give me life according to your words.
108 Lord, please accept the willing praise from my mouth,
    and teach me your judgments.
109 I take my life in my hands constantly,
    but I will not forget your law.
110 The wicked have set a snare for me,
    but I have not wandered from your precepts.
111 I have inherited your testimonies forever.
    Yes, they are the joy of my heart.
112 I turn my heart to do your statutes,
    forever, right to the end.

Samekh: Get Away From Me, You Evildoers

113 I hate the doubleminded, but I love your law.
114 You are my hiding place and my shield.
    I wait confidently for your word.
115 Get away from me, you evildoers,
    so that I may guard the commandments of my God!
116 Sustain me according to your sayings, and I will live.
    Do not let me be ashamed of my hope.
117 Hold me up, and I will be saved.
    Then I will always have regard for your statutes.
118 You reject all who stray from your statutes,
    because their deceitfulness is built on a lie. [1]
119 You discard all the wicked of the earth like slag.
    Therefore, I love your testimonies.
120 My flesh trembles because I am afraid of you,
    because I fear your judgments.

Ayin: It Is Time to Act

121 I have carried out what is just and right.
    Do not leave me to my oppressors.
122 Guarantee good for your servant.
    Do not let the arrogant oppress me.
123 My eyes wear out,
    as I watch for your salvation and your righteousness.
124 Deal with your servant according to your mercy,
    and teach me your statutes.
125 I am your servant. Give me discernment,
    so that I may know your testimonies.
126 Lord, it is time to do something!
    They have broken your laws.
127 Because I love your commandments more than gold,
    more than pure gold,
128 because I value everything in all your precepts,
    I hate every wrong road.
