[1] Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.
[2] Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
[3] They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.
[4] You have commanded us to keep your precepts diligently.
[5] O that my ways were directed to keep your statutes!
[6] Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect to all your commandments.
[7] I will praise you with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned your righteous judgments.
[8] I will keep your statutes: O forsake me not utterly.
[9] Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to your word.
[10] With my whole heart have I sought you: O let me not wander from your commandments.
[11] Your word have I hid in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
[12] Blessed are you, O LORD: teach me your statutes.
[13] With my lips have I declared all the judgments of your mouth.
[14] I have rejoiced in the way of your testimonies, as much as in all riches.
[15] I will meditate in your precepts, and have respect to your ways.
[16] I will delight myself in your statutes: I will not forget your word.
[17] Deal bountifully with your servant, that I may live, and keep your word.
[18] Open you my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law.
[19] I am a stranger in the earth: hide not your commandments from me.
[20] My soul breaks for the longing that it has to your judgments at all times.
[21] You have rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from your commandments.
[22] Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept your testimonies.
[23] Princes also did sit and speak against me: but your servant did meditate in your statutes.
[24] Your testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors.
[25] My soul sticks to the dust: quicken you me according to your word.
[26] I have declared my ways, and you heard me: teach me your statutes.
[27] Make me to understand the way of your precepts: so shall I talk of your wondrous works.
[28] My soul melts for heaviness: strengthen you me according to your word.
[29] Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me your law graciously.
[30] I have chosen the way of truth: your judgments have I laid before me.
[31] I have stuck to your testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame.
[32] I will run the way of your commandments, when you shall enlarge my heart.
[33] Teach me, O LORD, the way of your statutes; and I shall keep it to the end.
[34] Give me understanding, and I shall keep your law; yes, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
[35] Make me to go in the path of your commandments; for therein do I delight.
[36] Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to covetousness.
[37] Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken you me in your way.
[38] Establish your word to your servant, who is devoted to your fear.
[39] Turn away my reproach which I fear: for your judgments are good.
[40] Behold, I have longed after your precepts: quicken me in your righteousness.
[41] Let your mercies come also to me, O LORD, even your salvation, according to your word.
[42] So shall I have with which to answer him that reproaches me: for I trust in your word.
[43] And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in your judgments.
[44] So shall I keep your law continually for ever and ever.
[45] And I will walk at liberty: for I seek your precepts.
[46] I will speak of your testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.
[47] And I will delight myself in your commandments, which I have loved.
[48] My hands also will I lift up to your commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in your statutes.
[49] Remember the word to your servant, on which you have caused me to hope.
[50] This is my comfort in my affliction: for your word has quickened me.
[51] The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from your law.
[52] I remembered your judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself.
[53] Horror has taken hold on me because of the wicked that forsake your law.
[54] Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
[55] I have remembered your name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept your law.
[56] This I had, because I kept your precepts.
[57] You are my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep your words.
[58] I entreated your favor with my whole heart: be merciful to me according to your word.
[59] I thought on my ways, and turned my feet to your testimonies.
[60] I made haste, and delayed not to keep your commandments.
[61] The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten your law.
[62] At midnight I will rise to give thanks to you because of your righteous judgments.
[63] I am a companion of all them that fear you, and of them that keep your precepts.
[64] The earth, O LORD, is full of your mercy: teach me your statutes.
[65] You have dealt well with your servant, O LORD, according to your word.
[66] Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed your commandments.
[67] Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept your word.
[68] You are good, and do good; teach me your statutes.
[69] The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep your precepts with my whole heart.
[70] Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight 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] Your hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn your commandments.
[74] They that fear you will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in your word.
[75] I know, O LORD, that your judgments are right, and that you in faithfulness have afflicted me.
[76] Let, I pray you, your merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to your word to your servant.
[77] Let your tender mercies come to me, that I may live: for your law is my delight.
[78] Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in your precepts.
[79] Let those that fear you turn to me, and those that have known your testimonies.
[80] Let my heart be sound in your statutes; that I be not ashamed.
[81] My soul faints for your salvation: but I hope in your word.
[82] My eyes fail for your word, saying, When will you comfort me?
[83] For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget your statutes.
[84] How many are the days of your servant? when will you execute judgment on them that persecute me?
[85] The proud have dig pits for me, which are not after your law.
[86] All your commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help you me.
[87] They had almost consumed me on earth; but I forsook not your precepts.
[88] Quicken me after your loving kindness; so shall I keep the testimony of your mouth.
[89] For ever, O LORD, your word is settled in heaven.
[90] Your faithfulness is to all generations: you have established the earth, and it stays.
[91] They continue this day according to your ordinances: for all are your servants.
[92] Unless your law had been my delights, I should then have perished in my affliction.
[93] I will never forget your precepts: for with them you have quickened me.
[94] I am yours, save me: for I have sought your precepts.
[95] The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider your testimonies.
[96] I have seen an end of all perfection: but your commandment is exceeding broad.
[97] O how I love your law! it is my meditation all the day.
[98] You through your commandments have made me wiser than my enemies: for they are ever with me.
[99] I have more understanding than all my teachers: for your testimonies are my meditation.
[100] I understand more than the ancients, because I keep your precepts.
[101] I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep your word.
[102] I have not departed from your judgments: for you have taught me.
[103] How sweet are your words to my taste! yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
[104] Through your precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
[105] Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.
[106] I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep your righteous judgments.
[107] I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according to your word.
[108] Accept, I beseech you, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me your judgments.
[109] My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget your law.
[110] The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from your precepts.
[111] Your testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.
[112] I have inclined my heart to perform your statutes always, even to the end.
[113] I hate vain thoughts: but your law do I love.
[114] You are my hiding place and my shield: I hope in your word.
[115] Depart from me, you evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God.
[116] Uphold me according to your word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.
[117] Hold you me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect to your statutes continually.
[118] You have trodden down all them that err from your statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.
[119] You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love your testimonies.
[120] My flesh trembles for fear of you; and I am afraid of your judgments.
[121] I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to my oppressors.
[122] Be surety for your servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.
[123] My eyes fail for your salvation, and for the word of your righteousness.
[124] Deal with your servant according to your mercy, and teach me your statutes.
[125] I am your servant; give me understanding, that I may know your testimonies.
[126] It is time for you, LORD, to work: for they have made void your law.
[127] Therefore I love your commandments above gold; yes, above fine gold.
[128] Therefore I esteem all your precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
[129] Your testimonies are wonderful: therefore does my soul keep them.
[130] The entrance of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.
[131] I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for your commandments.
[132] Look you on me, and be merciful to me, as you use to do to those that love your name.
[133] Order my steps in your word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
[134] Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep your precepts.
[135] Make your face to shine on your servant; and teach me your statutes.
[136] Rivers of waters run down my eyes, because they keep not your law.
[137] Righteous are you, O LORD, and upright are your judgments.
[138] Your testimonies that you have commanded are righteous and very faithful.
[139] My zeal has consumed me, because my enemies have forgotten your words.
[140] Your word is very pure: therefore your servant loves it.
[141] I am small and despised: yet do not I forget your precepts.
[142] Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and your law is the truth.
[143] Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet your commandments are my delights.
[144] The righteousness of your testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
[145] I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep your statutes.
[146] I cried to you; save me, and I shall keep your testimonies.
[147] I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in your word.
[148] My eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in your word.
[149] Hear my voice according to your loving kindness: O LORD, quicken me according to your judgment.
[150] They draw near that follow after mischief: they are far from your law.
[151] You are near, O LORD; and all your commandments are truth.
[152] Concerning your testimonies, I have known of old that you have founded them for ever.
[153] Consider my affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget your law.
[154] Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to your word.
[155] Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not your statutes.
[156] Great are your tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to your judgments.
[157] Many are my persecutors and my enemies; yet do I not decline from your testimonies.

[159] Consider how I love your precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to your loving kindness.
[160] Your word is true from the beginning: and every one of your righteous judgments endures for ever.
[161] Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart stands in awe of your word.
[162] I rejoice at your word, as one that finds great spoil.
[163] I hate and abhor lying: but your law do I love.
[164] Seven times a day do I praise you because of your righteous judgments.
[165] Great peace have they which love your law: and nothing shall offend them.
[166] LORD, I have hoped for your salvation, and done your commandments.
[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] Let my cry come near 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] My lips shall utter praise, when you have taught me your statutes.
[172] My tongue shall speak of your word: for all your commandments are righteousness.
[173] Let your hand help me; for I have chosen your precepts.
[174] I have longed for your salvation, O LORD; and your law is my delight.
[175] Let my soul live, and it shall praise you; and let your judgments help me.
