PSALM 119 - Verses 17 to 32


Psalm 119

Verses 17-32


ג Gimel


17 

Be good to your servant while I live,
    that I may obey your word.

18 

Open my eyes that I may see
    wonderful things in your law.

19 

I am a stranger on earth;
    do not hide your commands from me.

20 

My soul is consumed with longing
    for your laws at all times.

21 

You rebuke the arrogant, who are accursed,
    those who stray from your commands.

22 

Remove from me scorn and contempt,
    for I keep your statutes.

23 

Though rulers sit together and slander me,
    your servant will meditate on your decrees.

24 

Your statutes are my delight;
    they are my counsellors.


ד Daleth

25 

I am laid low in the dust;
    preserve my life according to your word.

26 

I gave an account of my ways and you answered me;
    teach me your decrees.

27 

Cause me to understand the way of your precepts,
    that I may meditate on your wonderful deeds.

28 

My soul is weary with sorrow;
    strengthen me according to your word.

29 

Keep me from deceitful ways;
    be gracious to me and teach me your law.

30 

I have chosen the way of faithfulness;
    I have set my heart on your laws.

31 

I hold fast to your statutes, Lord;
    do not let me be put to shame.

32 

I run in the path of your commands,
    for you have broadened my understanding.
