Psalms 119:169-176

22. Tav

Let my cry come before You, O Jehovah; give me understanding according to Your word.
Let my supplication come before You; deliver me according to Your word.
Let my lips pour forth praise, for You teach me Your statutes.
Let my tongue sing of Your word, for all Your commandments are righteousness.
Let Your hand be ready to help me, for I have chosen Your precepts.
I have longed for Your salvation, O Jehovah, and Your law is my delight.
Let my soul live, and it will praise You; and let Your ordinances help me.
I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Your servant, for I have not forgotten Your commandments.

Psalms 119:161-168

21. Shin

Princes have persecuted me without cause, but my heart stands in awe of Your words.
I rejoice at Your word, like one who finds great spoil.
I hate and abhor falsehood, but I love Your law.
Seven times a day I praise You for Your righteous ordinances.
There is great peace for those who love Your law, and there is no occasion of stumbling for them.
I have hoped for Your salvation, O Jehovah; and I have done Your commandments.
My soul has kept Your testimonies, and I love them very much.
I have kept Your precepts and Your testimonies, for all my ways are before You.

Psalms 119:153-160

20. Resh

Look at my affliction, and deliver me; for I have not forgotten Your law.
Plead my case, and redeem me; enliven me according to Your word.
Salvation is far from the wicked, for they do not seek Your statutes.
Great are Your compassions, O Jehovah; enliven me according to Your ordinances.
Many are my persecutors and my adversaries, but I have not swerved from Your testimonies.
I saw the treacherous and loathed them, because they did not keep Your word.
See how I have loved Your precepts; O Jehovah, enliven me according to Your lovingkindness.
The sum of Your word is truth, and all Your righteous ordinances are forever.

Psalms 119:145-152

19. Qoph

I called with my whole heart; answer me, O Jehovah. I will keep Your statutes.
I called upon You; save me, and I will observe Your testimonies.
I anticipated the dawn and cried out; I hoped in Your words.
My eyes anticipated the night watches, that I might muse upon Your word.
Hear my voice according to Your lovingkindness; O Jehovah, according to Your ordinances enliven me.
Those who persecute me with evil intent draw near; they are far from Your law.
You are near, O Jehovah; and all Your commandments are truth.
Of old I have known from Your testimonies that You have founded them forever.

Psalms 119:137-144

18. Tsadhe

You are righteous, O Jehovah; and Your judgments are upright.
You have commanded Your testimonies in righteousness and great faithfulness.
My zeal has consumed me, for my adversaries have forgotten Your words.
Your word is very pure, and Your servant loves it.
I am small and despised, but I do not forget Your precepts.
Your righteousness is an eternal righteousness, and Your law is truth.
Distress and anguish have come upon me, but Your commandments are my delight.
Your testimonies are righteous forever; give me understanding, and I will live.

Psalms 119:129-136

17. Pe

Your testimonies are wonderful; therefore my soul keeps them.
The opening of Your words gives light, imparting understanding to the simple.
I opened my mouth wide and panted, for I longed for Your commandments.
Turn to me, and be gracious to me, as is Your custom with those who love Your name.
Establish my footsteps in Your word, and do not let any iniquity have dominion over me.
Redeem me from man's oppression, that I may keep Your precepts.
Cause Your face to shine on Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.
My eyes shed streams of water, because men do not keep Your law.
