Psalm 119:121-144

American Standard Version

¹²¹ I have done justice and righteousness:
Leave me not to mine oppressors.
¹²² Be surety for thy servant for good:
Let not the proud oppress me.
¹²³ Mine eyes fail for thy salvation,
And for thy righteous word.
¹²⁴ Deal with thy servant according unto thy lovingkindness,
And teach me thy statutes.
¹²⁵ I am thy servant; give me understanding,
That I may know thy testimonies.
¹²⁶ It is time for Jehovah to work;
For they have made void thy law.
¹²⁷ Therefore I love thy commandments
Above gold, yea, above fine gold.
¹²⁸ Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right;
And I hate every false way.

¹²⁹ Thy testimonies are wonderful;
Therefore doth my soul keep them.
¹³⁰ The opening of thy words giveth light;
It giveth understanding unto the simple.
¹³¹ I opened wide my mouth, and panted;
For I longed for thy commandments.
¹³² Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me,
As thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.
¹³³ Establish my footsteps in thy word;
And let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
¹³⁴ Redeem me from the oppression of man:
So will I observe thy precepts.
¹³⁵ Make thy face to shine upon thy servant;
And teach me thy statutes.
¹³⁶ Streams of water run down mine eyes,
Because they observe not thy law.

¹³⁷ Righteous art thou, O Jehovah,
And upright ^[a]are thy judgments.
¹³⁸ Thou hast commanded thy testimonies in righteousness
And very faithfulness.
¹³⁹ My zeal hath ^[b]consumed me,
Because mine adversaries have forgotten thy words.
¹⁴⁰ Thy word is very ^[c]pure;
Therefore thy servant loveth it.
¹⁴¹ I am small and despised;
Yet do I not forget thy precepts.
¹⁴² Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
And thy law is truth.
¹⁴³ Trouble and anguish have ^[d]taken hold on me;
Yet thy commandments are my delight.
¹⁴⁴ Thy testimonies are righteous for ever:
Give me understanding, and I shall live.
