LSV PSA Chapter 119

119 [ALEPH] O the blessedness of those perfect in the way,
They are walking in the Law of YHWH, 2 O the blessedness of those keeping His testimonies,
They seek Him with the whole heart. 3 Indeed, they have not done iniquity,
They have walked in His ways. 4 You have commanded us to diligently keep Your precepts, 5 O that my ways were prepared to keep Your statutes, 6 Then I am not ashamed
In my looking to all Your commands. 7 I confess You with uprightness of heart,
In my learning the judgments of Your righteousness. 8 I keep Your statutes, do not utterly leave me! 9 [BETH] With what does a young man purify his path? To observe—according to Your word. 10 I have sought You with all my heart,
Do not let me err from Your commands. 11 I have hid Your saying in my heart,
That I do not sin before You. 12 Blessed [are] You, O YHWH, teach me Your statutes. 13 With my lips I have recounted
All the judgments of Your mouth. 14 I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
As over all wealth. 15 I meditate on Your precepts,
And I attentively behold Your paths. 16 I delight myself in Your statutes,
I do not forget Your word. 17 [GIMEL] Confer benefits on Your servant,
I live, and I keep Your word. 18 Uncover my eyes, and I behold wonders out of Your law. 19 I [am] a sojourner on earth,
Do not hide Your commands from me. 20 My soul has broken for desire
To Your judgments at all times. 21 You have rebuked the cursed proud,
Who are erring from Your commands. 22 Remove reproach and contempt from me,
For I have kept Your testimonies. 23 Princes also sat—they spoke against me,
Your servant meditates on Your statutes, 24 Your testimonies [are] also my delight,
The men of my counsel! 25 [DALETH] My soul has cleaved to the dust,
Quicken me according to Your word. 26 I have recounted my ways,
And You answer me, teach me Your statutes, 27 Cause me to understand the way of Your precepts,
And I meditate on Your wonders. 28 My soul has dropped from affliction,
Establish me according to Your word. 29 Turn aside the way of falsehood from me
And favor me with Your law. 30 I have chosen the way of faithfulness,
I have compared Your judgments, 31 I have adhered to Your testimonies,
O YHWH, do not put me to shame. 32 I run the way of Your commands,
For You enlarge my heart! 33 [HE] Show me, O YHWH, the way of Your statutes,
And I keep it—[to] the end. 34 Cause me to understand, and I keep Your law,
And observe it with the whole heart. 35 Cause me to tread in the path of Your commands,
For I have delighted in it. 36 Incline my heart to Your testimonies,
And not to dishonest gain. 37 Remove my eyes from seeing vanity,
Quicken me in Your way. 38 Establish Your saying to Your servant,
That [is] concerning Your fear. 39 Remove my reproach that I have feared,
For Your judgments [are] good. 40 Behold, I have longed for Your precepts,
Quicken me in Your righteousness, 41 [WAW] And Your kindness meets me, O YHWH,
Your salvation according to Your saying. 42 And I answer him who is reproaching me a word,
For I have trusted in Your word. 43 And You do not utterly take away
The word of truth from my mouth,
Because I have hoped for Your judgment. 44 And I keep Your law continually,
For all time and forever. 45 And I habitually walk in a broad place,
For I have sought Your precepts. 46 And I speak of Your testimonies before kings,
And I am not ashamed. 47 And I delight myself in Your commands,
That I have loved, 48 And I lift up my hands to Your commands,
That I have loved,
And I meditate on Your statutes! 49 [ZAYIN] Remember the word to Your servant,
On which You have caused me to hope. 50 This [is] my comfort in my affliction,
That Your saying has quickened me. 51 The proud have utterly scorned me,
I have not turned aside from Your law. 52 I remembered Your judgments of old, O YHWH,
And I comfort myself. 53 Horror has seized me,
Because of the wicked forsaking Your law. 54 Your statutes have been songs to me,
In the house of my sojournings. 55 I have remembered Your Name in the night, O YHWH,
And I keep Your law. 56 This has been to me,
That I have kept Your precepts! 57 [HETH] YHWH [is] my portion; I have said I would keep Your words, 58 I appeased Your face with the whole heart,
Favor me according to Your saying. 59 I have reckoned my ways,
And turn back my feet to Your testimonies. 60 I have made haste,
And did not delay, to keep Your commands. 61 Cords of the wicked have surrounded me,
I have not forgotten Your law. 62 At midnight I rise to give thanks to You,
For the judgments of Your righteousness. 63 I [am] a companion to all who fear You,
And to those keeping Your precepts. 64 Of Your kindness, O YHWH, the earth is full,
Teach me Your statutes! 65 [TETH] You did good with Your servant, O YHWH,
According to Your word. 66 Teach me the goodness of reason and knowledge,
For I have believed in Your commands. 67 Before I am afflicted, I am erring,
And now I have kept Your saying. 68 You [are] good, and doing good,
Teach me Your statutes. 69 The proud have forged falsehood against me,
I keep Your precepts with the whole heart. 70 Their heart has been thick as fat,
I have delighted in Your law. 71 [It is] good for me that I have been afflicted,
That I might learn Your statutes. 72 The Law of Your mouth [is] better to me
Than thousands of gold and silver! 73 [YOD] Your hands made me and establish me,
Cause me to understand, and I learn Your commands. 74 Those fearing You see me and rejoice,
Because I have hoped for Your word. 75 I have known, O YHWH,
That Your judgments [are] righteous,
And [in] faithfulness You have afflicted me. 76 Please let Your kindness be to comfort me,
According to Your saying to Your servant. 77 Your mercies meet me, and I live,
For Your law [is] my delight. 78 The proud are ashamed,
For [with] falsehood they dealt perversely with me. I meditate on Your precepts. 79 Those fearing You turn back to me,
And those knowing Your testimonies. 80 My heart is perfect in Your statutes,
So that I am not ashamed. 81 [KAPH] My soul has been consumed for Your salvation,
I have hoped for Your word. 82 My eyes have been consumed for Your word,
Saying, “When does it comfort me?” 83 For I have been as a bottle in smoke,
I have not forgotten Your statutes. 84 How many [are] the days of Your servant? When do You execute judgment
Against my pursuers? 85 The proud have dug pits for me,
That [are] not according to Your law. 86 All Your commands [are] faithfulness,
They have pursued me [with] falsehood,
Help me. 87 They have almost consumed me on earth,
And I have not forsaken Your precepts. 88 Quicken me according to Your kindness,
And I keep the Testimony of Your mouth! 89 [LAMED] For all time, O YHWH, Your word is set up in the heavens. 90 Your faithfulness from generation to generation,
You established earth, and it stands. 91 According to Your ordinances
They have stood this day, for the whole—Your servants. 92 Unless Your law [were] my delights,
Then had I perished in my affliction. 93 I do not forget Your precepts for all time,
For You have quickened me by them. 94 I [am] Yours, save me, for I have sought Your precepts. 95 Your wicked waited for me to destroy me,
I understand Your testimonies. 96 I have seen an end of all perfection,
Your command [is] exceedingly broad! 97 [MEM] O how I have loved Your law! It [is] my meditation all the day. 98 Your command makes me wiser than my enemies,
For it [is] before me for all time. 99 I have acted wisely above all my teachers. For Your testimonies [are] my meditation. 100 Above elderly—I understand more,
For I have kept Your precepts. 101 I restrained my feet from every evil path,
So that I keep Your word. 102 I did not turn aside from Your judgments,
For You have directed me. 103 How sweet Your saying has been to my palate,
Above honey to my mouth. 104 I have understanding from Your precepts,
Therefore I have hated every false path! 105 [NUN] Your word [is] a lamp to my foot,
And a light to my path. 106 I have sworn, and I confirm,
To keep the judgments of Your righteousness. 107 I have been afflicted very much,
O YHWH, quicken me, according to Your word. 108 Please accept [the] free-will offerings of my mouth, O YHWH,
And teach me Your judgments. 109 My soul [is] in my hand continually,
And I have not forgotten Your law. 110 The wicked have laid a snare for me,
And I did not wander from your precepts. 111 I have inherited Your testimonies for all time,
For they [are] the joy of my heart. 112 I have inclined my heart
To do Your statutes, for all time—[to] the end! 113 [SAMEKH] I have hated doubting ones,
And I have loved Your law. 114 You [are] my hiding place and my shield,
I have hoped for Your word. 115 Turn aside from me, you evildoers,
And I keep the commands of my God. 116 Sustain me according to Your saying,
And I live, and You do not put me to shame because of my hope. 117 Support me, and I am saved,
And I look on Your statutes continually. 118 You have trodden down
All going astray from Your statutes,
For their deceit [is] falsehood. 119 Dross! You have caused to cease
All the wicked of the earth; Therefore I have loved Your testimonies. 120 My flesh has trembled from Your fear,
And I have been afraid from Your judgments! 121 [AYIN] I have done judgment and righteousness,
Do not leave me to my oppressors. 122 Make Your servant sure for good,
Do not let the proud oppress me. 123 My eyes have been consumed for Your salvation. And for the saying of Your righteousness. 124 Do with Your servant according to Your kindness. And teach me Your statutes. 125 I [am] Your servant—cause me to understand,
And I know Your testimonies. 126 Time for YHWH to work! They have made Your law void. 127 Therefore I have loved Your commands
Above gold—even fine gold. 128 Therefore all my appointments I have declared wholly right,
I have hated every path of falsehood! 129 [PE] Your testimonies [are] wonderful,
Therefore my soul has kept them. 130 The opening of Your words enlightens,
Instructing the simple. 131 I have opened my mouth, indeed, I pant,
For I have longed for Your commands. 132 Look to me, and favor me,
As customary to those loving Your Name. 133 Establish my steps by Your saying,
And any iniquity does not rule over me. 134 Ransom me from the oppression of man,
And I observe Your precepts, 135 Cause Your face to shine on Your servant,
And teach me Your statutes. 136 Streams of waters have come down my eyes,
Because they have not kept Your law! 137 [TSADE] You [are] righteous, O YHWH,
And Your judgments [are] upright. 138 You have appointed Your testimonies,
Righteous and exceedingly faithful, 139 My zeal has cut me off,
For my adversaries forgot Your words. 140 Your saying [is] tried exceedingly,
And Your servant has loved it. 141 I [am] small, and despised,
I have not forgotten Your precepts. 142 Your righteousness [is] righteousness for all time,
And Your law [is] truth. 143 Adversity and distress have found me,
Your commands [are] my delights. 144 The righteousness of Your testimonies
[Is] to cause me to understand, and I live! 145 [QOF] I have called with the whole heart,
Answer me, O YHWH, I keep Your statutes, 146 I have called You, save me,
And I keep Your testimonies. 147 I have gone forward in the dawn, and I cry,
I have hoped for Your word. 148 My eyes have gone before the watches,
To meditate on Your saying. 149 Hear my voice, according to Your kindness,
YHWH, quicken me according to Your judgment. 150 My wicked pursuers have been near,
They have been far off from Your law. 151 You [are] near, O YHWH,
And all Your commands [are] truth. 152 I have known Your testimonies of old,
That You have founded them for all time! 153 [RESH] See my affliction, and deliver me,
For I have not forgotten Your law. 154 Plead my plea, and redeem me,
Quicken me according to Your saying. 155 Salvation [is] far from the wicked,
For they have not sought Your statutes. 156 Your mercies [are] many, O YHWH,
Quicken me according to Your judgments. 157 My pursuers and adversaries are many,
I have not turned aside from Your testimonies. 158 I have seen treacherous ones,
And grieve myself,
Because they have not kept Your saying. 159 See, for I have loved Your precepts,
YHWH, quicken me according to Your kindness. 160 The sum of Your word [is] truth,
And every judgment of Your righteousness [is] for all time! 161 [SHIN] Princes have pursued me without cause,
And my heart was afraid because of Your words. 162 I rejoice concerning Your saying,
As one finding abundant spoil. 163 I have hated falsehood, indeed I detest [it],
I have loved Your law. 164 Seven [times] in a day I have praised You,
Because of the judgments of Your righteousness. 165 Those loving Your law have abundant peace,
And they have no stumbling-block. 166 I have waited for Your salvation, O YHWH,
And I have done Your commands. 167 My soul has kept Your testimonies,
And I love them exceedingly. 168 I have kept Your precepts and Your testimonies,
For all my ways are before You! 169 [TAW] My loud cry comes near before You, O YHWH; Cause me to understand according to Your word. 170 My supplication comes in before You,
Deliver me according to Your saying. 171 My lips utter praise,
For You teach me Your statutes. 172 My tongue sings of Your saying,
For all Your commands [are] righteous. 173 Your hand is for a help to me,
For I have chosen Your commands. 174 I have longed for Your salvation, O YHWH,
And Your law [is] my delight. 175 My soul lives, and it praises You,
And Your judgments help me. 176 I wandered as a lost sheep, [so] seek Your servant,
For I have not forgotten Your precepts!
