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