1Happy are the perfect of way, who walk in the Torah of YHWH.
2Happy are those who keep his testimonies (edot), who seek him with all the heart.
3Yea, they have not done injustice; in his ways they have walked.
4You yourself have commanded (tzivvah) your precepts to be kept diligently.
5Oh that my ways were established to keep your statutes (chuqqim)!
6Then I shall not be ashamed, when I look to all your commandments (mitzvot).
7I will praise you with uprightness of heart, when I learn the judgments (mishpat) of your righteousness.
8Your statutes (chuqqim) I will keep; do not forsake me utterly.
9By what does a young man keep his path pure? By guarding it according to your word.
10With all my heart I have sought you; do not let me stray from your commandments (mitzvot).
11In my heart I have stored up your saying, so that I may not sin against you.
12Blessed are you, YHWH; teach me your statutes (chuqqim).
13With my lips I have recounted all the judgments (mishpat) of your mouth.
14In the way of your testimonies (edot) I have rejoiced, as over all riches.
15In your precepts I will meditate, and I will regard your paths.

19A sojourner am I in the earth; do not hide from me your commandments (mitzvot).
20My soul (nephesh) is crushed with longing for your judgments (mishpat) at every time.
21You have rebuked the insolent, the cursed, who stray from your commandments (mitzvot).
22Roll away from me reproach and contempt, for your testimonies (edot) I have kept.
23Even princes have sat and spoken against me; your servant meditates on your statutes (chuqqim).
24Also your testimonies (edot) are my delight, the men (ish) of my counsel.
25My soul (nephesh) clings to the dust (aphar); give me life according to your word.
26My ways I have recounted, and you answered me; teach me your statutes (chuqqim).
27Make me understand the way of your precepts, and I will meditate on your wonders.
28My soul (nephesh) melts away from grief; sustain me according to your word.
29Remove from me the way of falsehood, and graciously grant me your Torah.
30The way of faithfulness I have chosen; your judgments (mishpat) I have set before me.
31I cling to your testimonies (edot); YHWH, do not put me to shame.
32The way of your commandments (mitzvot) I will run, for you enlarge my heart.
33Teach me, YHWH, the way of your statutes (chuqqim), and I will keep it to the end.
34Make me understand, that I may keep your Torah and observe it with all the heart.
35Make me tread in the path of your commandments (mitzvot), for in it I have delighted.
36Incline my heart to your testimonies (edot), and not to gain.
37Turn away my eyes from seeing vanity; in your way give me life.
38Confirm to your servant your saying, which is for your fear.
39Turn away my reproach which I dread, for your judgments (mishpat) are good.
40Behold, I have longed for your precepts; in your righteousness give me life.
41And let your acts of lovingkindness come to me, YHWH, your salvation according to your saying.
42And I will answer the one who taunts me a word, for I have trusted in your word.
43And do not take from my mouth the word of truth utterly, for in your judgment (mishpat) I have hoped.
44And I will keep your Torah continually, forever and ever.
45And I will walk about in a wide place, for I have sought your precepts.
46And I will speak of your testimonies (edot) before kings, and not be ashamed.
47And I will delight myself in your commandments (mitzvot), which I have loved.
48And I will lift up my hands to your commandments (mitzvot), which I have loved, and I will meditate on your statutes (chuqqim).
49Remember the word to your servant, upon which you have made me hope.
50This is my comfort in my affliction, that your saying has given me life.
51The insolent have utterly mocked me; from your Torah I have not turned aside.
52I have remembered your judgments (mishpat) from of old, YHWH, and I comforted myself.
53Burning indignation has seized me because of the wicked who forsake your Torah.
54Songs your statutes (chuqqim) have been to me in the house of my sojourning.
55I have remembered in the night your name, YHWH, and I have kept your Torah.
56This has been mine, that I have kept your precepts.
57My portion is YHWH; I have said that I would keep your words.
58I have entreated your face with all the heart; be gracious to me according to your saying.
59I have considered my ways, and turned my feet to your testimonies (edot).
60I hastened and did not delay to keep your commandments (mitzvot).
61The cords of the wicked have surrounded me; your Torah I have not forgotten.
62At midnight I rise to praise you, because of the judgments (mishpat) of your righteousness.
63A companion am I to all who fear you, and to those who keep your precepts.
64Your lovingkindness, YHWH, fills the earth; teach me your statutes (chuqqim).
65Good you have done with your servant, YHWH, according to your word.
66Good discernment and knowledge teach me, for in your commandments (mitzvot) I have believed.
67Before I was afflicted, I was going astray; but now your saying I have kept.
68Good are you and doing good; teach me your statutes (chuqqim).
69The insolent have smeared falsehood upon me; I, with all the heart, keep your precepts.
70Their heart is gross like fat; I delight in your Torah.
71Good for me that I was afflicted, so that I might learn your statutes (chuqqim).
72Better to me is the Torah of your mouth than thousands of gold and silver.
73Your hands have made me and established me; make me understand, that I may learn your commandments (mitzvot).
74Those who fear you see me and rejoice, for in your word I have hoped.
75I know, YHWH, that your judgments (mishpat) are righteous, and in faithfulness you have afflicted me.
76Let your lovingkindness, I pray, be to comfort me, according to your saying to your servant.
77Let your compassions come to me, that I may live, for your Torah is my delight.
78Let the insolent be ashamed, for with falsehood they have wronged me; I will meditate on your precepts.
79Let those who fear you return to me, and those who know your testimonies (edot).
80Let my heart be perfect in your statutes (chuqqim), so that I may not be ashamed.
81My soul (nephesh) has pined for your salvation; in your word I have hoped.
82My eyes have failed for your saying, saying, "When will you comfort me?"
83For I have become like a wineskin in smoke; your statutes (chuqqim) I have not forgotten.
84How many are the days of your servant? When will you execute judgment (mishpat) on my pursuers?
85The insolent have dug pits for me, which are not according to your Torah.
86All your commandments (mitzvot) are faithfulness; with falsehood they persecute me; help me.
87Almost they have consumed me in the earth, but I have not forsaken your precepts.
88According to your lovingkindness give me life, and I will keep the testimony (edut) of your mouth.
89Forever, YHWH, your word stands firm in the heavens.
90To generation and generation is your faithfulness; you established the earth, and it stands.
91By your judgments (mishpat) they stand this day, for all are your servants.
92Unless your Torah had been my delight, then I would have perished in my affliction.
93Forever I will not forget your precepts, for by them you have given me life.
94Yours am I; save me (yasha), for your precepts I have sought.
95For me the wicked have waited to destroy me; your testimonies (edot) I consider.
96To every perfection I have seen a limit; your commandment (mitzvah) is exceedingly broad.
97How I love your Torah! All the day it is my meditation.
98Your commandments (mitzvot) make me wiser than my enemies, for forever it is mine.
99More than all my teachers I have gained insight, for your testimonies (edot) are my meditation.
100More than elders I understand, for your precepts I have kept.
101From every evil path I have restrained my feet, so that I might keep your word.
102From your judgments (mishpat) I have not turned aside, for you yourself have instructed me.
103How sweet to my palate is your saying, more than honey to my mouth!
104From your precepts I gain understanding; therefore I hate every path of falsehood.
105A lamp to my foot is your word, and a light to my path.
106I have sworn, and I will confirm it, to keep the judgments (mishpat) of your righteousness.
107I am afflicted very much; YHWH, give me life according to your word.
108The freewill offerings of my mouth accept, I pray, YHWH, and your judgments (mishpat) teach me.
109My soul (nephesh) is in my palm continually, yet your Torah I have not forgotten.
110The wicked have set a snare for me, yet from your precepts I have not strayed.
111I have inherited your testimonies (edot) forever, for they are the joy of my heart.
112I have inclined my heart to do your statutes (chuqqim), forever, to the end.
113The double-minded I hate, but your Torah I love.
114My hiding place and my shield are you; in your word I have hoped.
115Depart from me, evildoers, that I may keep the commandments (mitzvot) of my God.
116Uphold me according to your saying, that I may live, and do not put me to shame for my hope.
117Sustain me, that I may be saved (yasha), and I will gaze on your statutes (chuqqim) continually.
118You have made light of all who stray from your statutes (chuqqim), for their deceit is falsehood.
119Like dross you have put an end to all the wicked of the earth; therefore I love your testimonies (edot).
120My flesh (basar) shudders from dread of you, and of your judgments (mishpat) I am afraid.
121I have done judgment (mishpat) and righteousness; do not leave me to my oppressors.
122Be surety for your servant for good; let not the insolent oppress me.
123My eyes have failed for your salvation (yeshuah), and for the saying of your righteousness.
124Deal with your servant according to your lovingkindness, and teach me your statutes (chuqqim).
125Your servant am I; make me understand, that I may know your testimonies (edot).
126It is time to act for YHWH; they have broken your Torah.
127Therefore I love your commandments (mitzvot) more than gold, and more than fine gold.
128Therefore I esteem right all precepts concerning everything; every path of falsehood I hate.
129Wonderful are your testimonies (edot); therefore my soul (nephesh) keeps them.
130The opening of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.
131My mouth I opened wide and panted, for I longed for your commandments (mitzvot).
132Turn to me and be gracious to me, as is the judgment (mishpat) for those who love your name.
133My steps establish by your saying, and let no iniquity rule over me.
134Redeem me from the oppression of man (adam), and I will keep your precepts.
135Make your face shine upon your servant, and teach me your statutes (chuqqim).
136Streams of water run down my eyes, because they have not kept your Torah.
137Righteous are you, YHWH, and upright are your judgments (mishpat).
138You have commanded (tzivvah) your testimonies (edot) in righteousness, and exceeding faithfulness.
139My zeal has consumed me, for my adversaries have forgotten your words.
140Refined is your saying exceedingly, and your servant loves it.
141Small am I and despised; your precepts I have not forgotten.
142Your righteousness is righteousness forever, and your Torah is truth.
143Distress and anguish have found me; your commandments (mitzvot) are my delight.
144Righteousness are your testimonies (edot) forever; make me understand, that I may live.
145I have called with all the heart; answer me, YHWH; your statutes (chuqqim) I will keep.
146I have called you; save me (yasha), and I will keep your testimonies (edot).
147I have risen early in the twilight and cried out; in your word I have hoped.
148My eyes have anticipated the night watches, to meditate on your saying.
149My voice hear according to your lovingkindness; YHWH, according to your judgment (mishpat) give me life.
150They have drawn near, the pursuers of wickedness; from your Torah they are far.
151Near are you, YHWH, and all your commandments (mitzvot) are truth.
152Of old I have known from your testimonies (edot) that you founded them forever.
153See my affliction and deliver me, for your Torah I have not forgotten.
154Plead my cause and redeem me; according to your saying give me life.
155Far from the wicked is salvation (yeshuah), for your statutes (chuqqim) they have not sought.
156Your compassions are many, YHWH; according to your judgments (mishpat) give me life.
157Many are my pursuers and my adversaries; from your testimonies (edot) I have not turned aside.
158I have seen the treacherous and loathed them, because your saying they have not kept.
159See that I love your precepts; YHWH, according to your lovingkindness give me life.
160The sum of your word is truth, and forever is every judgment (mishpat) of your righteousness.
161Princes have persecuted me without cause, but at your word my heart is in dread.
162Rejoicing am I over your saying, like one who finds great spoil.
163Falsehood I hate and abhor; your Torah I love.
164Seven times in the day I have praised you, because of the judgments (mishpat) of your righteousness.
165Great peace have those who love your Torah, and there is no stumbling-block for them.
