Psalms:119:49-104
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 law .
*
I remembered thy judgments of old ,
O LORD ;
and have comforted myself .
*
Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law .
*
Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage .
*
I have remembered thy name ,
O LORD ,
in the night ,
and have kept thy law .
*
This I had ,
because I kept thy precepts .
*
Thou art my portion ,
O LORD :
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 commandments .
*
The bands of the wicked have robbed me :
but I have not forgotten thy law .
*
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 LORD ,
is full of thy mercy :
teach me thy statutes .
*
Thou hast dealt well with thy servant ,
O LORD ,
according unto thy word .
*
Teach me good judgment and knowledge :
for I have believed thy commandments .
*
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 law .
*
It is good for me that I have been afflicted ;
that I might learn thy statutes .
*
The law 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 commandments .
*
They that fear thee will be glad when they see me ;
because I have hoped in thy word .
*
I know ,
O LORD ,
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 law 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 soul 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 law .
*
All thy commandments 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 LORD ,
thy word is settled in heaven .
*
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 law 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 commandment is exceeding broad .
*
O how love I thy law !
it is my meditation all the day .
*
Thou through thy commandments 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 .
