Psalm 119 

Verses 97-112

מ Mem

97 

Oh, how I love your law!

    I meditate on it all day long.

98 

Your commands are always with me

    and make me wiser than my enemies.

99 

I have more insight than all my teachers,

    for I meditate on your statutes.

100 

I have more understanding than the elders,

    for I obey your precepts.

101 

I have kept my feet from every evil path

    so that I might obey your word.

102 

I have not departed from your laws,

    for you yourself have taught me.

103 

How sweet are your words to my taste,

    sweeter than honey to my mouth!

104 

I gain understanding from your precepts;

    therefore I hate every wrong path.

נ Nun

105 

Your word is a lamp for my feet,

    a light on my path.

106 

I have taken an oath and confirmed it,

    that I will follow your righteous laws.

107 

I have suffered much;

    preserve my life, Lord, according to your word.

108 

Accept, Lord, the willing praise of my mouth,

    and teach me your laws.

109 

Though I constantly take my life in my hands,

    I will not forget your law.

110 

The wicked have set a snare for me,

    but I have not strayed from your precepts.

111 

Your statutes are my heritage for ever;

    they are the joy of my heart.

112 

My heart is set on keeping your decrees

    to the very end.

PSALM 119 - Verses 81 to 96

Psalm 119

Verses 65-80

כ Kaph

81 

My soul faints with longing for your salvation,

    but I have put my hope in your word.

82 

My eyes fail, looking for your promise;

    I say, ‘When will you comfort me?’

83 

Though I am like a wineskin in the smoke,

    I do not forget your decrees.

84 

How long must your servant wait?

    When will you punish my persecutors?

85 

The arrogant dig pits to trap me,

    contrary to your law.

86 

All your commands are trustworthy;

    help me, for I am being persecuted without cause.

87 

They almost wiped me from the earth,

    but I have not forsaken your precepts.

88 

In your unfailing love preserve my life,

    that I may obey the statutes of your mouth.

ל Lamedh

89 

Your word, Lord, is eternal;

    it stands firm in the heavens.

90 

Your faithfulness continues through all generations;

    you established the earth, and it endures.

91 

Your laws endure to this day,

    for all things serve you.

92 

If your law had not been my delight,

    I would have perished in my affliction.

93 

I will never forget your precepts,

    for by them you have preserved my life.

94 

Save me, for I am yours;

    I have sought out your precepts.

95 

The wicked are waiting to destroy me,

    but I will ponder your statutes.

96 

To all perfection I see a limit,

    but your commands are boundless.
