Psalm 119:175

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.

Be gracious to me, O Lord;
See my affliction from those who hate me,
You who lift me up from the gates of death,

“What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?

Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, the God of my salvation;
Then my tongue will joyfully sing of Your righteousness.

The Lord has disciplined me severely,

But He has not given me over to death.

“It is the living who give thanks to You, as I do today;
A father tells his sons about Your faithfulness.

I know, O Lord, that Your judgments are righteous,
And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

Indeed, while following the way of Your judgments, O Lord,
We have waited for You eagerly;

Your name, even Your memory, is the desire of our souls.

And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would not be judged.

For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison,

Let the peoples praise You, O God;
Let all the peoples praise You.
