Psalms 119
1 Blessed are those who are perfect in the way, who walk in the law of Jehovah.
Alleluia. ALEPH. Beati immaculati in via: qui ambulant in lege Domini.
2 Blessed are those who keep his testimonies, that seek him with the whole heart.
Beati, qui scrutantur testimonia eius: in toto corde exquirunt eum.
3 Yea, they do no unrighteousness. They walk in his ways.
Non enim qui operantur iniquitatem, in viis eius ambulaverunt.
4 Thou have commanded thy precepts, that we should observe them diligently.
Tu mandasti mandata tua custodiri nimis.
5 O that my ways were established to observe thy statutes!
Utinam dirigantur viæ meæ, ad custodiendas iustificationes tuas.
6 Then I shall not be put to shame when I have respect for all thy commandments.
Tunc non confundar, cum perspexero in omnibus mandatis tuis.
7 I will give thanks to thee with uprightness of heart when I learn thy righteous judgments.
Confitebor tibi in directione cordis: in eo quod didici iudicia iustitiæ tuæ.
8 I will observe thy statutes. O forsake me not utterly.
Iustificationes tuas custodiam: non me derelinquas usquequaque.
9 With what shall a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to thy word.
BETH. In quo corrigit adolescentior viam suam? in custodiendo sermones tuos.
10 With my whole heart I have sought thee. O let me not wander from thy commandments.
In toto corde meo exquisivi te: ne repellas me a mandatis tuis.
11 I have laid thy word up in my heart that I might not sin against thee.
In corde meo abscondi eloquia tua: ut non peccem tibi.
12 Blessed are thou, O Jehovah. Teach me thy statutes.
Benedictus es Domine: doce me iustificationes tuas.
13 With my lips I have declared all the ordinances of thy mouth.
In labiis meis, pronunciavi omnia iudicia oris tui.
14 I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonies as much as in all riches.

17 Deal bountifully with thy servant that I may live, so I will observe thy word.
GHIMEL. Retribue servo tuo, vivifica me: et custodiam sermones tuos.
18 Open thou my eyes that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.
Revela oculos meos: et considerabo mirabilia de lege tua.
19 I am a sojourner in the earth. Hide not thy commandments from me.
Incola ego sum in terra: non abscondas a me mandata tua.
20 My soul breaks for the longing that it has to thine ordinances at all times.
Concupivit anima mea desiderare iustificationes tuas, in omni tempore.
21 Thou have rebuked the proud, who are cursed, who wander from thy commandments.
Increpasti superbos: maledicti qui declinant a mandatis tuis.
22 Take away from me reproach and contempt, for I have kept thy testimonies.
Aufer a me opprobrium, et contemptum: quia testimonia tua exquisivi.
23 Rulers also sat and talked against me, but thy servant meditated on thy statutes.
Etenim sederunt principes, et adversum me loquebantur: servus autem tuus exercebatur in iustificationibus tuis.
24 Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counselors.
Nam et testimonia tua meditatio mea est: et consilium meum iustificationes tuæ.
25 My soul clings to the dust. Enliven thou me according to thy word.
DALETH. Adhæsit pavimento anima mea: vivifica me secundum verbum tuum.

Ecce concupivi mandata tua: in æquitate tua vivifica me.
41 Let thy loving kindnesses also come to me, O Jehovah, even thy salvation, according to thy word.
VAU. Et veniat super me misericordia tua Domine: salutare tuum secundum eloquium tuum.
42 So I shall have an answer for him who reproaches me, for I trust in thy word.
Et respondebo exprobrantibus mihi verbum: quia speravi in sermonibus tuis.
43 And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth, for I have hoped in thine ordinances.
Et ne auferas de ore meo verbum veritatis usquequaque: quia in iudiciis tuis supersperavi.
44 So shall I observe thy law continually forever and ever.
Et custodiam legem tuam semper: in sæculum et in sæculum sæculi.
45 And I shall walk at liberty, for I have sought thy precepts.
Et ambulabam in latitudine: quia mandata tua exquisivi.
46 I also will speak of thy testimonies before kings, and shall not be put to shame.

Superbi inique agebant usquequaque: a lege autem tua non declinavi.
52 I have remembered thine ordinances of old, O Jehovah, and have comforted myself.
Memor fui iudiciorum tuorum a sæculo Domine: et consolatus sum.
53 Hot indignation has taken hold upon me because of the wicked who forsake thy law.
Defectio tenuit me, pro peccatoribus derelinquentibus legem tuam.
54 Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
Cantabiles mihi erant iustificationes tuæ, in loco peregrinationis meæ.
55 I have remembered thy name, O Jehovah, in the night, and have observed thy law.
Memor fui nocte nominis tui Domine: et custodivi legem tuam.
56 This I have had because I have kept thy precepts.
Hæc facta est mihi: quia iustificationes tuas exquisivi.
57 Jehovah is my portion; I have said that I would observe thy words.
HETH. Portio mea Domine, dixi custodire legem tuam.
58 I entreated thy favor with my whole heart. Be merciful to me according to thy word.

68 Thou are good, and do good. Teach me thy statutes.
Bonus es tu: et in bonitate tua doce me iustificationes tuas.
69 The proud have forged a lie against me. With my whole heart I will keep thy precepts.

82 My eyes fail for thy word, while I say, When will thou comfort me?
Defecerunt oculi mei in eloquium tuum, dicentes: Quando consolaberis me?
83 For I have become like a wine-skin in the smoke. Yet I do not forget thy statutes.
Quia factus sum sicut uter in pruina: iustificationes tuas non sum oblitus.
84 How many are the days of thy servant? When will thou execute judgment on those who persecute me?
Quot sunt dies servi tui: quando facies de persequentibus me iudicium?
85 The proud have dug pits for me, who are not according to thy law.
Narraverunt mihi iniqui fabulationes: sed non ut lex tua.
86 All thy commandments are faithful. They persecute me wrongfully. Help thou me.
Omnia mandata tua veritas: inique persecuti sunt me, adiuva me.
87 They had almost consumed me upon earth, but I did not forsake thy precepts.
Paulominus consummaverunt me in terra: ego autem non dereliqui mandata tua.
88 Revive me according to thy loving kindness, so I shall observe the testimony of thy mouth.
Secundum misericordiam tuam vivifica me: et custodiam testimonia oris tui.
89 Forever, O Jehovah, thy word is settled in heaven.

90 Thy faithfulness is to all generations. Thou have established the earth, and it abides.
In generationem et generationem veritas tua: fundasti terram, et permanet.
91 They abide this day according to thine ordinances, for all things are thy servants.
Ordinatione tua perseverat dies: quoniam omnia serviunt tibi.
92 Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in my affliction.
Nisi quod lex tua meditatio mea est: tunc forte periissem in humilitate mea.
