Psalm 119:122

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.

Put him into my care and make me responsible for him: if I do not give him safely back to you, let mine be the sin for ever.

Be not one of those who give their hands in an agreement, or of those who make themselves responsible for debts:

I make cries like a bird; I give out sounds of grief like a dove: my eyes are looking up with desire; O Lord, I am crushed, take up my cause.

If he has done you any wrong or is in debt to you for anything, put it to my account.

By so much is it a better agreement which we have through Jesus.

Your hand has been against the men of pride, a curse is on those who go wandering out of your way.

Let not the foot of pride come against me, or the hand of the evil-doers put me out of my place.

Make me free from the cruel rule of man; then I will keep your orders.
