Psalm 119
Lucerna pedibus meis
105
Thy word is a lantern unto my feet *
and a light unto my paths.
106
I have sworn, and am stedfastly purposed *
to keep thy righteous judgements.
107
I am troubled above measure *
quicken me, O Lord, according to thy word.
108
Let the free-will offerings of my mouth please thee, O Lord *
and teach me thy judgements.
109
My soul is alway in my hand *
yet do I not forget thy law.
110
The ungodly have laid a snare for me *
but yet I swerved not from thy commandments.
111
Thy testimonies have I claimed as mine heritage for ever *
and why? they are the very joy of my heart.
112
I have applied my heart to fulfil thy statutes alway *
even unto the end.
Iniquos odio habui
113
I hate them that imagine evil things *
but thy law do I love.
114
Thou art my defence and shield *
and my trust is in thy word.
115
Away from me, ye wicked *
I will keep the commandments of my God.
116
O stablish me according to thy word, that I may live *
and let me not be disappointed of my hope.
117
Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe *
yea, my delight shall be ever in thy statutes.
118
Thou hast trodden down all them that depart from thy statutes *
for they imagine but deceit.
119
Thou puttest away all the ungodly of the earth like dross *
therefore I love thy testimonies.
120
My flesh trembleth for fear of thee *
and I am afraid of thy judgements.
Feci judicium
121
I deal with the thing that is lawful and right *
O give me not over unto mine oppressors.
122
Make thou thy servant to delight in that which is good *
that the proud do me no wrong.
123
Mine eyes are wasted away with looking for thy health *
and for the word of thy righteousness.
124
O deal with thy servant according unto thy loving mercy *
and teach me thy statutes.
125
I am thy servant, O grant me understanding *
that I may know thy testimonies.
126
It is time for thee, Lord, to lay to thine hand *
for they have destroyed thy law.
127
For I love thy commandments *
above gold and precious stone.
128
Therefore hold I straight all thy commandments *
and all false ways I utterly abhor.
Mirabilia
129
Thy testimonies are wonderful *
therefore doth my soul keep them.
130
When thy word goeth forth *
it giveth light and understanding unto the simple.
131
I opened my mouth, and drew in my breath *
for my delight was in thy commandments.
132
O 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 so shall no wickedness have dominion over me.
134
O deliver me from the wrongful dealings of men *
and so shall I keep thy commandments.
135
Shew the light of thy countenance upon thy servant *
and teach me thy statutes.
136
Mine eyes gush out with water *
because men keep not thy law.
Justus es, Domine
137
Righteous art thou, O Lord *
and true is thy judgement.
138
The testimonies that thou hast commanded *
are exceeding righteous and true.
139
My zeal hath even consumed me *
because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.
140
Thy word is tried to the uttermost *
and thy servant loveth it.
141
I am small, and of no reputation *
yet do I not forget thy commandments.
142
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness *
and thy law is the truth.
143
Trouble and heaviness have taken hold upon me *
yet is my delight in thy commandments.
144
The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting *
O grant me understanding, and I shall live.
