Psalms 119
1 Blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the Law of the LORD.
Alleluja. [Aleph Beati immaculati in via, qui ambulant in lege Domini.
2 Blessed are those who keep His testimonies and seek Him with all their heart.
Beati qui scrutantur testimonia ejus; in toto corde exquirunt eum.
3 They do no iniquity; they walk in His ways.
Non enim qui operantur iniquitatem in viis ejus ambulaverunt.
4 You have ordained Your precepts, that we should keep them diligently.
Tu mandasti mandata tua custodiri nimis.
5 Oh, that my ways were committed to keeping Your statutes!

7 I will praise You with an upright heart when I learn Your righteous judgments.
Confitebor tibi in directione cordis, in eo quod didici judicia justitiæ tuæ.
8 I will keep Your statutes; do not utterly forsake me.
Justificationes tuas custodiam; non me derelinquas usquequaque.
9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to Your word.
Beth In quo corrigit adolescentior viam suam? in custodiendo sermones tuos.
10 With all my heart I have sought You; do not let me stray from Your commandments.
In toto corde meo exquisivi te; ne repellas me a mandatis tuis.
11 I have hidden Your word in my heart that I might not sin against You.
In corde meo abscondi eloquia tua, ut non peccem tibi.
12 Blessed are You, O LORD; teach me Your statutes.
Benedictus es, Domine; doce me justificationes tuas.
13 With my lips I proclaim all the judgments of Your mouth.

24 Your testimonies are indeed my delight; they are my counselors.
Nam et testimonia tua meditatio mea est, et consilium meum justificationes tuæ.
25 My soul cleaves to the dust; revive me according to Your word.

43 Never take Your word of truth from my mouth, for I hope in Your judgments.
Et ne auferas de ore meo verbum veritatis usquequaque, quia in judiciis tuis supersperavi.
44 I will always obey Your law, forever and ever.
Et custodiam legem tuam semper, in sæculum et in sæculum sæculi.
45 And I will walk in freedom, for I have sought Your precepts.
Et ambulabam in latitudine, quia mandata tua exquisivi.
46 I will speak of Your testimonies before kings, and I will not be ashamed.

52 I remember Your judgments of old, O LORD, and in them I find comfort.
Memor fui judiciorum tuorum a sæculo, Domine, et consolatus sum.
53 Rage has taken hold of me because of the wicked who reject Your law.
Defectio tenuit me, pro peccatoribus derelinquentibus legem tuam.
54 Your statutes are songs to me in the house of my pilgrimage.
Cantabiles mihi erant justificationes tuæ in loco peregrinationis meæ.
55 In the night, O LORD, I remember Your name, that I may keep Your law.
Memor fui nocte nominis tui, Domine, et custodivi legem tuam.
56 This is my practice, for I obey Your precepts.

68 You are good, and You do what is good; teach me Your statutes.
Bonus es tu, et in bonitate tua doce me justificationes tuas.
69 Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies, I keep Your precepts with all my heart.
Multiplicata est super me iniquitas superborum; ego autem in toto corde meo scrutabor mandata tua.
70 Their hearts are hard and callous, but I delight in Your law.
Coagulatum est sicut lac cor eorum; ego vero legem tuam meditatus sum.
71 It was good for me to be afflicted, that I might learn Your statutes.

75 I know, O LORD, that Your judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

82 My eyes fail, looking for Your promise; I ask, “When will You comfort me?”
Defecerunt oculi mei in eloquium tuum, dicentes: Quando consolaberis me?
83 Though I am like a wineskin dried up by smoke, I do not forget Your statutes.
Quia factus sum sicut uter in pruina; justificationes tuas non sum oblitus.
84 How many days must Your servant wait? When will You execute judgment on my persecutors?
Quot sunt dies servi tui? quando facies de persequentibus me judicium?
85 The arrogant have dug pits for me in violation of Your law.
Narraverunt mihi iniqui fabulationes, sed non ut lex tua.
86 All Your commandments are faithful; I am persecuted without cause—help me!
Omnia mandata tua veritas: inique persecuti sunt me, adjuva me.
87 They almost wiped me from the earth, but I have not forsaken Your precepts.
Paulominus consummaverunt me in terra; ego autem non dereliqui mandata tua.
88 Revive me according to Your loving devotion, that I may obey the testimony of Your mouth.

91 Your ordinances stand to this day, for all things are servants to You.
Ordinatione tua perseverat dies, quoniam omnia serviunt tibi.
92 If Your law had not been my delight, then I would have perished in my affliction.
Nisi quod lex tua meditatio mea est, tunc forte periissem in humilitate mea.
93 I will never forget Your precepts, for by them You have revived me.
In æternum non obliviscar justificationes tuas, quia in ipsis vivificasti me.
94 I am Yours; save me, for I have sought Your precepts.

107 I am severely afflicted, O LORD; revive me through Your word.
Humiliatus sum usquequaque, Domine; vivifica me secundum verbum tuum.
108 Accept the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me Your judgments.

117 Uphold me, and I will be saved, that I may always regard Your statutes.
Adjuva me, et salvus ero, et meditabor in justificationibus tuis semper.
118 You reject all who stray from Your statutes, for their deceitfulness is in vain.
Sprevisti omnes discedentes a judiciis tuis, quia injusta cogitatio eorum.
119 All the wicked on earth You discard like dross; therefore I love Your testimonies.
Prævaricantes reputavi omnes peccatores terræ; ideo dilexi testimonia tua.
120 My flesh trembles in awe of You; I stand in fear of Your judgments.
