Psalms · Chapter 119

Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the torah of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH).
Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart.
They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways.
Thou hast commanded us to keep thy precepts diligently.
O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!
Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all thy mitsvot.
I will praise thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall have learned thy righteous judgments.
I will keep thy statutes: O forsake me not utterly.
Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.
With my whole heart have I sought thee: O let me not wander from thy mitsvot.
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.
Blessed art thou, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH): teach me thy statutes.
With my lips have I declared all the judgments of thy mouth.
I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies, as much as in all riches.
I will meditate in thy precepts, and have respect unto thy ways.
I will delight myself in thy statutes: I will not forget thy word.
Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word.
Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy torah.
I am a stranger in the earth: hide not thy mitsvot from me.
My nephesh breaketh for the longing that it hath unto thy judgments at all times.
Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy mitsvot.
Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.
Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.
Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counsellors.
My nephesh cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.
I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.
Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.
My nephesh melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word.
Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy torah graciously.
I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me.
I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), put me not to shame.
I will run the way of thy mitsvot, when thou shalt enlarge my heart.
Teach me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.
Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy torah; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
Make me to go in the path of thy mitsvot; for therein do I delight.
Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.
Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.
Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.
Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.
Let thy mercies come also unto me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), even thy salvation, according to thy word.
So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word.
And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.
So shall I keep thy torah continually for ever and ever.
And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts.
I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.
And I will delight myself in thy mitsvot, which I have loved.
My hands also will I lift up unto thy mitsvot, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.
Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.
This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me.
The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy torah.
I remembered thy judgments of old, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); and have comforted myself.
Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy torah.
Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
I have remembered thy name, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), in the night, and have kept thy torah.
This I had, because I kept thy precepts.
Thou art my portion, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH): I have said that I would keep thy words.
I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word.
I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy mitsvot.
The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy torah.
At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments.
I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts.
The earth, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes.
Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), according unto thy word.
Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy mitsvot.
Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word.
Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes.
The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart.
Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy torah.
It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.
The torah of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.
Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy mitsvot.
They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word.
I know, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.
Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.
Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy torah is my delight.
Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.
Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.
Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.
My nephesh fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.
Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes.
How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?
The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy torah.
All thy mitsvot are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.
They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.
Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.
For ever, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), thy word is settled in shamayim.
Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.
They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants.
Unless thy torah had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction.
I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.
I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts.
The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies.
I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy mitsvah is exceeding broad.
O how love I thy torah! it is my meditation all the day.
Thou through thy mitsvot hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me.
I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation.
I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts.
I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word.
I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me.
How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.
I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.
I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), according unto thy word.
Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and teach me thy judgments.
My nephesh is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy torah.
The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts.
Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart.
I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.
I hate vain thoughts: but thy torah do I love.
Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word.
Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the mitsvot of my Elohim.
Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.
Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.
Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood.
Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies.
My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.
I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.
Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me.
Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness.
Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.
I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.
It is time for thee, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), to work: for they have made void thy torah.
Therefore I love thy mitsvot above gold; yea, above fine gold.
Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way.
Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my nephesh keep them.
The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy mitsvot.
Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name.
Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts.
Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes.
Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy torah.
Righteous art thou, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and upright are thy judgments.
Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful.
My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.
Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it.
I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.
Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy torah is the truth.
Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy mitsvot are my delights.
The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live.
I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH): I will keep thy statutes.
I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies.
I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word.
Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.
Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), quicken me according to thy judgment.
They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy torah.
Thou art near, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); and all thy mitsvot are truth.
Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever.
Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy torah.
Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.
Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.
Great are thy tender mercies, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH): quicken me according to thy judgments.
Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.
I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.
Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), according to thy lovingkindness.
Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.
I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.
I hate and abhor lying: but thy torah do I love.
Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.
Great peace have they which love thy torah: and nothing shall offend them.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy mitsvot.
My nephesh hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.
I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.
Let my cry come near before thee, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH): give me understanding according to thy word.
Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.
My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.
My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy mitsvot are righteousness.
Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.
I have longed for thy salvation, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH); and thy torah is my delight.
Let my nephesh live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.
I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy mitsvot.

Tehillim120

Psalms · Chapter 120

In my distress I cried unto 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), and he heard me.
Deliver my nephesh, O 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.
What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?
Sharp arrows of the mighty, with coals of juniper.
Woe is me, that I sojourn in Mesech, that I dwell in the tents of Kedar!
My nephesh hath long dwelt with him that hateth peace.
I am for peace: but when I speak, they are for war.

Tehillim121

Psalms · Chapter 121

I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
My help cometh from 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH), which made shamayim and earth.
He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
Behold, he that keepeth Yisra'el shall neither slumber nor sleep.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) is thy keeper: 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy nephesh.
𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (YHWH) shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
