I have inclined my heart to perform thine ordinances for ever, in return [for thy mercies]. |
|
 119:112
I have inclinedºº
mine heartº
to performºº
thy statutesº
alway,º
[even unto] the end.º |
 119:113
I have hated transgressors; but I have loved thy law. |

Thou art my helper and my supporter; I have hoped in thy words. |
|
 119:114
Thouº

Depart from me, ye evil-doers; for I will search out the commandments of my God. |

 119:115
Departºº
fromº
me, ye evildoers:ºº
for I will keepºº

continually.º |
 119:118
Thou hast brought to nought all that depart from thine ordinances; for their inward thought is unrighteous. |

 119:118
Thou hast trodden downºº
allº
them that errºº
from thy statutes:ºº
forº
their deceitº
[is] falsehood.º |
 119:119
I have reckoned all the sinners of the earth as transgressors; therefore have I loved thy testimonies. |
|
 119:119
Thou puttest awayºº
allº
the wickedº
of the earthº
[like] dross:º
thereforeº
I loveºº
thy testimonies.º |
 119:120
Penetrate my flesh with thy fear; for I am afraid of thy judgments. |
|
 119:120
My fleshº
tremblethºº
for fearºº
of thee; and I am afraidºº
of thy judgments.ºº |
 119:121
I have done judgment and justice; deliver me not up to them that injure me. |

 119:121
AIN. I have doneºº
judgmentº
and justice:º
leaveººº
me notº
to mine oppressors.ºº |

 119:122
Be suretyºº

 119:126
[It is] time for the Lord to work: they have utterly broken thy law. |

 119:126
[It is] timeº
for [thee], Yahweh,º
to work:ºº
[for] they have made voidºº
thy law.º |
 119:127
Therefore have I loved thy commandments more than gold, or the topaz. |

 119:131
I openedºº
my mouth,º
and panted:ºº
forº
I longedºº
for thy commandments.º |

 119:135
Make thy faceº
to shineºº
upon thy servant;º
and teachºº
meº
thy statutes.º |
 119:136
Mine eyes have been bathed in streams of water, because I kept not thy law. |
|
 119:136
Riversº
of watersº
run downºº
mine eyes,º
becauseº
they keepºº
notº
thy law.º |
 119:137
Righteous art thou, O Lord, and upright are thy judgments. |

 119:137
TZADDI. Righteousº
[art] thou,º
O Yahweh,º

Thy zeal has quite wasted me: because mine enemies have forgotten thy words. |

 119:139
My zealº
hath consumedºº
me, becauseº
mine enemiesº

pure:ºº
therefore thy servantº
lovethºº
it. |

 119:150
They draw nighºº
that followºº
afterº
mischief:º
they are farºº
from thy law.ºº |

 119:155
Salvationº
[is] farº
from the wicked:ºº
forº
