The proud devised falsehood against me: I will watch thy charges with all the heart.

Their heart was fat as fatness; I delighted in thy law.

Good for me that thou didst humble me, so that I shall learn thy laws.

Thy hands made me and they will prepare me: cause me to understand and I will learn thy commands.

They fearing thee shall see me and be glad; for I hoped for thy word.

I knew, O Jehovah, that thy judgments are justice, and in truth thou didst humble me.

Thy compassion shall come to me and I shall live, for thy law is my delight

The proud shall be ashamed, for they acted perversely to me without cause: I will meditate in thy charges

My heart shall be blameless in thy laws, so that I shall not be ashamed.

My soul failed for thy, salvation: I hoped for thy word.

I was as a bottle in smoke; I forgot not thy laws.

They almost finished me upon earth, and I forsook not thy charges.

According to thy mercy make me live, and I will watch the testimonies of thy mouth.

Forever, O Jehovah, thy word was set in the heavens.

Unless thy law was my delight I perished in mine affliction.

Forever will I not forget thy charges, for in them thou didst make me live.

I am to thee; save me; for I sought thy charges.

The unjust waited for me to destroy me: I shall understand thy testimonies.

I saw the end to all perfection: thy command is exceeding broad.

How I loved thy law I all the day it is my meditation.

Above all those teaching me I understood, for thy testimonies a meditation to me.

I shall understand above the old men, for I watched thy charges.

I withheld my feet from every evil way, so that I watch thy word.

I departed not from thy judgments, for thou didst teach me.

How smooth were thy words to my palate I more than honey to my mouth!

From thy charges I shall understand: for this I hated every way of falsehood.

Thy word a lamp to my feet, and a light to my beaten path.

I sware, and I will cease to stand, to watch the judgments of thy justice.

I was humbled even greatly: O Jehovah, cause me to live according to thy word,

Accept now the voluntaries of my month, O Jehovah, and teach me thy judgments.

My soul is in my hand always, and I, forgot not thy law.

The unjust one gave a snare for me, and I wandered not from thy charges.

I inherited thy testimonies forever: for they are the joy of my heart.

I inclined my heart to do thy laws forever to the end.

I hated dividings, and I loved thy law.

Thou my hiding and my shield: I hoped for thy word.

Depart from me, ye doing evil, and I will watch the commands of my God.

Uphold me according to thy word, and I shall live: and thou wilt not make me ashamed of my hope.

Support me and I shall be saved: and I shall look upon thy laws always

The dross thou didst cause to cease, all the unjust of the earth: for this I loved thy testimonies.

My flesh stood erect from thy fear, and I was afraid of thy judgments.

I did judgment and justice: thou wilt not leave me to those oppressing me.

I am thy servant; cause me to understand, and I shall know thy tesmonies.

For this I loved thy commands above gold, and above fine gold.

For this I made straight all thy charges, all: hated every way of falsehood.

I opened wide my mouth, and I shall pant: for I longed for thy commands.

Redeem me from the oppression of man, and I will watch thy charges.

Just art thou, O Jehovah, and upright thy judgments.

I am small and despised: I did not forget thy charges.

Justice is thy testimonies forever: cause me to understand and I shall live.

I called with all my heart: answer me, O Jehovah: I will watch thy laws.

I called to thee: save me, and I will watch thy testimonies.

I anticipated the dawn, and I will cry: I hoped for thy words

Hear my voice according to thy mercy O Jehovah, cause me to live according to thy judgment

Thou art near, O Jehovah; and all thy commands are truth.

Of old I knew from thy testimonies, for thou didst found them forever.

See mine affliction, and deliver me: for I forget not thy law.

Great thy compassions, O Jehovah: cause me to live according to thy judgments.

Many are they pursuing me and pressing me: I declined not from thy testimonies.

I saw those transgressing, and I shall loathe, for they watched not thy word.

See that I loved thy charges, O Jehovah, make me live according to thy mercy.

I rejoice at thy word as he finding much spoil.

I hated falsehood, and I will abhor it: I loved thy law.

Seven times in the day I praised thee, for the judgments of thy justice.

I hoped for thy salvation, O Jehovah, and I did thy commands.

I watched thy charges, and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.

My cry shall draw near before thee, O Jehovah: cause me to understand according to thy word.

Thy hand shall be to help me, for I chose thy charges.

I longed for thy salvation, O Jehovah, and thy law is my delight

I wandered as a lost sheep; seek thy servant, for I forgat not thy commands.

Song of ascensions. I called to Jehovah in straits to me, and he will answer me.

O Jehovah, deliver my soul from lips of falsehood, from a tongue of deceit.

Wo! to me that I sojourned in Mesech; I dwelt with the tents of Ke dar.

I peace: and when I shall speak, they for war.

Song of ascensions. I will lift up mine eyes to the mountains from whence shall come my help.

Song of ascensions to David. I was glad in their saying to me, We will go to the house of Jehovah.

Jerusalem was built as a city, joined to it together.

Ask ye the peace of Jerusalem: they loving thee shall be at rest

For sake of my brethren and my friends, I will now speak, Peace upon

For sake of the house of Jehovah our God I will seek out good for thee.

Song of ascensions. To thee dwelling in the heavens I lifted up mine eyes.

Behold, as the eyes of servants to the hand of their lords, as the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes are to Jehovah our God, even till he compassionate us.

Compassionate us, O Jehovah, compassionate us: for we were much filled with contempt

Much was our soul filled with it, a derision of those living at ease the contempt of the proud.

Blessed be Jehovah, who gave us not a prey to their teeth.

Our soul as a sparrow was delivered from the snare of the fowlers: the snare was broken and we were delivered.

Do good, O Jehovah, to the good and to the upright in their hearts.

Song of ascensions. In Jehovah turning back the returning of we were as those dreaming.

Jehovah magnified to do with us; we were made glad.

In vain for you rising early to arise from after sitting; eating the bread of toils: so will he give to his beloved sleep.

Happy the man who filled his quiver from them: they shall not be ashamed when they shall speak with their enemies in the gate.

Thy wife as a vine bearing fruit in the sides of thy house: thy sons as plants of olives round about thy table.

And they passing by, said not, The praise of Jehovah to you: we praised you in the name of Jehovah.

Song of ascensions. From the depths I called thee, O Jehovah.

O Jehovah, hear to my voice: thine ears shall be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

If thou, Jehovah, shalt watch iniquities, O Jehovah, who shall stand?

I waited for Jehovah, my soul waited, and I hoped for his word

Song of ascensions to David. O Jehovah, my heart was not lifted up, and mine eyes were not exalted, and I went not in great things and in wonders above me.

If I did not place and rest my soul as a child weaned of his Mother: my soul as a weaned child.

Song of ascensions. Remember, O Jehovah, for David with all his affliction.
