1Blessed are they that are perfect in the way,
2Blessed are they that keep his testimonies,
3Yea, they do no unrighteousness;
4Thou hast commanded us thy precepts,
5Oh that my ways were established
6Then shall I not be put to shame,
7I will give thanks unto thee with uprightness of heart,
8I will observe thy statutes:
9Wherewith shall a young man cleanse his way?
10With my whole heart have I sought thee:
11Thy word have I laid up in my heart,
12Blessed art thou, O Jehovah:
13With my lips have I declared
14I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies,
15I will meditate on thy precepts,
16I will delight myself in thy statutes:
17Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live;
18Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold
19I am a sojourner in the earth:
20My soul breaketh for the longing
21Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed,
22Take away from me reproach and contempt;
23Princes also sat and talked against me;
24Thy testimonies also are my delight
25My soul cleaveth unto the dust:
26I declared my ways, and thou answeredst me:
27Make me to understand the way of thy precepts:
28My soul melteth for heaviness:
29Remove from me the way of falsehood;
30I have chosen the way of faithfulness:
31I cleave unto thy testimonies:
32I will run the way of thy commandments,
33Teach me, O Jehovah, the way of thy statutes;
34Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law;
35Make me to go in the path of thy commandments;
36Incline my heart unto thy testimonies,
37Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity,
38Confirm unto thy servant thy word,
39Turn away my reproach whereof I am afraid;
40Behold, I have longed after thy precepts:
41Let thy lovingkindnesses also come unto me, O Jehovah,
42So shall I have an answer for him that reproacheth me;
43And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth;
44So shall I observe thy law continually
45And I shall walk at liberty;
46I will also speak of thy testimonies before kings,
47And I will delight myself in thy commandments,
48I will lift up my hands also unto thy commandments, which I have loved;
49Remember the word unto thy servant,
50This is my comfort in my affliction;
51The proud have had me greatly in derision:
52I have remembered thine ordinances of old, O Jehovah,
53Hot indignation hath taken hold upon me,
54Thy statutes have been my songs
55I have remembered thy name, O Jehovah, in the night,
56This I have had,
57Jehovah is my portion:
58I entreated thy favor with my whole heart:
59I thought on my ways,
60I made haste, and delayed not,
61The cords of the wicked have wrapped me round;
62At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee
63I am a companion of all them that fear thee,
64The earth, O Jehovah, is full of thy lovingkindness:
65Thou hast dealt well with thy servant,
66Teach me good judgment and knowledge;
67Before I was afflicted I went astray;
68Thou art good, and doest good;
69The proud have forged a lie against me:
70Their heart is as fat as grease;
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted;
72The law of thy mouth is better unto me
73Thy hands have made me and fashioned me:
74They that fear thee shall see me and be glad,
75I know, O Jehovah, that thy judgments are righteous,
76Let, I pray thee, thy lovingkindness be for my comfort,
77Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live;
78Let the proud be put to shame; for they have overthrown me wrongfully:
79Let those that fear thee turn unto me;
80Let my heart be perfect in thy statutes,
81My soul fainteth for thy salvation;
82Mine eyes fail for thy word,
83For I am become like a wine-skin in the smoke;
84How many are the days of thy servant?
85The proud have digged pits for me,
86All thy commandments are faithful:
87They had almost consumed me upon earth;
88Quicken me after thy lovingkindness;
89For ever, O Jehovah,
90Thy faithfulness is unto all generations:
91They abide this day according to thine ordinances;
92Unless thy law had been my delight,
93I will never forget thy precepts;
94I am thine, save me;
95The wicked have waited for me, to destroy me;
96I have seen an end of all perfection;
97Oh how love I thy law!
98Thy commandments make me wiser than mine enemies;
99I have more understanding than all my teachers;
100I understand more than the aged,
101I have refrained my feet from every evil way,
102I have not turned aside from thine ordinances;
103How sweet are thy words unto my taste!
104Through thy precepts I get understanding:
105Thy word is a lamp unto my feet,
106I have sworn, and have confirmed it,
107I am afflicted very much:
108Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill-offerings of my mouth, O Jehovah,
109My soul is continually in my hand;
110The wicked have laid a snare for me;
111Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage for ever;
112I have inclined my heart to perform thy statutes
113I hate them that are of a double mind;
114Thou art my hiding-place and my shield:
115Depart from me, ye evil-doers,
116Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live;
117Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe,
118Thou hast set at nought all them that err from thy statutes;
119Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross:
120My flesh trembleth for fear of thee;
121I have done justice and righteousness:
122Be surety for thy servant for good:
123Mine eyes fail for thy salvation,
124Deal with thy servant according unto thy lovingkindness,
125I am thy servant; give me understanding,
126It is time for Jehovah to work;
127Therefore I love thy commandments
128Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right;
129Thy testimonies are wonderful;
130The opening of thy words giveth light;
131I opened wide my mouth, and panted;
132Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me,
133Establish my footsteps in thy word;
134Redeem me from the oppression of man:
135Make thy face to shine upon thy servant;
136Streams of water run down mine eyes,
137Righteous art thou, O Jehovah,
138Thou hast commanded thy testimonies in righteousness
139My zeal hath consumed me,
140Thy word is very pure;
141I am small and despised;
142Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
143Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me;
144Thy testimonies are righteous for ever:
145I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O Jehovah:
146I have called unto thee; save me,
147I anticipated the dawning of the morning, and cried:
148Mine eyes anticipated the night-watches,
149Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness:
150They draw nigh that follow after wickedness;
151Thou art nigh, O Jehovah;
152Of old have I known from thy testimonies,
153Consider mine affliction, and deliver me;
154Plead thou my cause, and redeem me:
155Salvation is far from the wicked;
156Great are thy tender mercies, O Jehovah:
157Many are my persecutors and mine adversaries;
158I beheld the treacherous, and was grieved,
159Consider how I love thy precepts:
160The sum of thy word is truth;
161Princes have persecuted me without a cause;
162I rejoice at thy word,
163I hate and abhor falsehood;
164Seven times a day do I praise thee,
165Great peace have they that love thy law;
166I have hoped for thy salvation, O Jehovah,
167My soul hath observed thy testimonies;
168I have observed thy precepts and thy testimonies;
169Let my cry come near before thee, O Jehovah:
170Let my supplication come before thee:
171Let my lips utter praise;
172Let my tongue sing of thy word;
173Let thy hand be ready to help me;
174I have longed for thy salvation, O Jehovah;
175Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee;
176I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant;
