Psalms 119
1 ALEPH. Happy are they whose way is perfect, who walk in the law of the Lord.
αλληλουια α# αλφ μακάριοι οἱ ἄμωμοι ἐν ὁδῷ οἱ πορευόμενοι ἐν νόμῳ κυρίου
2 Happy are they who keep his testimonies, that seek him with all their heart.
μακάριοι οἱ ἐξερευνῶντες τὰ μαρτύρια αὐτοῦ ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ ἐκζητήσουσιν αὐτόν
3 They also commit no injustice; in his ways do they walk.
οὐ γὰρ οἱ ἐργαζόμενοι τὴν ἀνομίαν ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς αὐτοῦ ἐπορεύθησαν
4 Thou thyself hast commanded us thy precepts, that we might keep [them] diligently.
σὺ ἐνετείλω τὰς ἐντολάς σου φυλάξασθαι σφόδρα
5 Oh that my ways were firmly directed to observe thy statutes!
ὄφελον κατευθυνθείησαν αἱ ὁδοί μου τοῦ φυλάξασθαι τὰ δικαιώματά σου
6 Then would I not be made ashamed, while I look at all thy commandments.
τότε οὐ μὴ ἐπαισχυνθῶ ἐν τῷ με ἐπιβλέπειν ἐπὶ πάσας τὰς ἐντολάς σου
7 I will thank thee with uprightness of heart, when I learn thy righteous ordinances.
ἐξομολογήσομαί σοι κύριε ἐν εὐθύτητι καρδίας ἐν τῷ μεμαθηκέναι με τὰ κρίματα τῆς δικαιοσύνης σου
8 Thy statutes will I observe: oh forsake me not too greatly.
τὰ δικαιώματά σου φυλάξω μή με ἐγκαταλίπῃς ἕως σφόδρα
9 BETH. Wherewithal shall a youth keep his way pure? by guarding it according to thy word.
β# βηθ ἐν τίνι κατορθώσει ὁ νεώτερος τὴν ὁδὸν αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ φυλάσσεσθαι τοὺς λόγους σου
10 With all my heart have I sought thee: oh let me not wander astray from thy commandments.
ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ μου ἐξεζήτησά σε μὴ ἀπώσῃ με ἀπὸ τῶν ἐντολῶν σου
11 In my heart have I treasured up thy saying, in order that I may not sin against thee.
ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ μου ἔκρυψα τὰ λόγιά σου ὅπως ἂν μὴ ἁμάρτω σοι
12 Blessed art thou, O Lord: teach me thy statutes.
εὐλογητὸς εἶ κύριε δίδαξόν με τὰ δικαιώματά σου
13 With my lips have I related all the ordinances of thy mouth.
ἐν τοῖς χείλεσίν μου ἐξήγγειλα πάντα τὰ κρίματα τοῦ στόματός σου
14 On the way of thy testimonies have I been glad, as over all wealth.
ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τῶν μαρτυρίων σου ἐτέρφθην ὡς ἐπὶ παντὶ πλούτῳ
15 On thy precepts will I meditate, and direct my look unto thy paths.
ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς σου ἀδολεσχήσω καὶ κατανοήσω τὰς ὁδούς σου
16 In thy statutes will I seek my delight: I will not forget thy word.
ἐν τοῖς δικαιώμασίν σου μελετήσω οὐκ ἐπιλήσομαι τῶν λόγων σου
17 GIMEL. Deal bountifully with thy servant: let me live, that I may observe thy word.
γ# γιμαλ ἀνταπόδος τῷ δούλῳ σου ζήσομαι καὶ φυλάξω τοὺς λόγους σου
18 Open thou my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law.
ἀποκάλυψον τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ κατανοήσω τὰ θαυμάσιά σου ἐκ τοῦ νόμου σου
19 A stranger am I on the earth: hide not from me thy commandments.
πάροικος ἐγώ εἰμι ἐν τῇ γῇ μὴ ἀποκρύψῃς ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ τὰς ἐντολάς σου
20 My soul is broken from longing for thy ordinances at all times.
ἐπεπόθησεν ἡ ψυχή μου τοῦ ἐπιθυμῆσαι τὰ κρίματά σου ἐν παντὶ καιρῷ
21 Thou hast rebuked the accursed proud, who go erringly astray from thy commandments.
ἐπετίμησας ὑπερηφάνοις ἐπικατάρατοι οἱ ἐκκλίνοντες ἀπὸ τῶν ἐντολῶν σου
22 Roll away from me reproach and contempt; for thy testimonies have I kept.
περίελε ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ ὄνειδος καὶ ἐξουδένωσιν ὅτι τὰ μαρτύριά σου ἐξεζήτησα
23 Although even princes should sit and speak against me, thy servant would still meditate on thy statutes.
καὶ γὰρ ἐκάθισαν ἄρχοντες καὶ κατ’ ἐμοῦ κατελάλουν ὁ δὲ δοῦλός σου ἠδολέσχει ἐν τοῖς δικαιώμασίν σου
24 Also thy testimonies are my delight, my counsellors.
καὶ γὰρ τὰ μαρτύριά σου μελέτη μού ἐστιν καὶ αἱ συμβουλίαι μου τὰ δικαιώματά σου
25 DALETH. My soul cleaveth unto the dust: revive thou me according to thy word.
δ# δελθ ἐκολλήθη τῷ ἐδάφει ἡ ψυχή μου ζῆσόν με κατὰ τὸν λόγον σου
26 My ways do I relate [to thee], and thou answerest me: teach me thy statutes.
τὰς ὁδούς μου ἐξήγγειλα καὶ ἐπήκουσάς μου δίδαξόν με τὰ δικαιώματά σου
27 Cause me to understand the way of thy precepts, that I may meditate on thy wonders.
ὁδὸν δικαιωμάτων σου συνέτισόν με καὶ ἀδολεσχήσω ἐν τοῖς θαυμασίοις σου
28 My soul droppeth away from grief: sustain me according to thy word.
ἔσταξεν ἡ ψυχή μου ἀπὸ ἀκηδίας βεβαίωσόν με ἐν τοῖς λόγοις σου
29 The way of falsehood do thou remove from me, and grant me graciously thy law.
ὁδὸν ἀδικίας ἀπόστησον ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ καὶ τῷ νόμῳ σου ἐλέησόν με
30 The way of truth have I chosen: thy ordinances have I set [before me].
ὁδὸν ἀληθείας ᾑρετισάμην τὰ κρίματά σου οὐκ ἐπελαθόμην
31 I have adhered unto thy testimonies: O Lord, put me not to shame.
ἐκολλήθην τοῖς μαρτυρίοις σου κύριε μή με καταισχύνῃς
32 The way of thy commandments will I run; for thou wilt enlarge my heart.
ὁδὸν ἐντολῶν σου ἔδραμον ὅταν ἐπλάτυνας τὴν καρδίαν μου
33 HE. Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes, and I shall keep it in all its windings.
ε# η νομοθέτησόν με κύριε τὴν ὁδὸν τῶν δικαιωμάτων σου καὶ ἐκζητήσω αὐτὴν διὰ παντός
34 Give me understanding, that I may keep thy law, and I will observe it with all [my] heart.
συνέτισόν με καὶ ἐξερευνήσω τὸν νόμον σου καὶ φυλάξω αὐτὸν ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ μου
35 Guide me on the path of thy commandments; for therein do I find my delight.
ὁδήγησόν με ἐν τρίβῳ τῶν ἐντολῶν σου ὅτι αὐτὴν ἠθέλησα
36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to desire for gain.
κλῖνον τὴν καρδίαν μου εἰς τὰ μαρτύριά σου καὶ μὴ εἰς πλεονεξίαν
37 Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity: on thy way do thou give me life.
ἀπόστρεψον τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου τοῦ μὴ ἰδεῖν ματαιότητα ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ σου ζῆσόν με
38 Fulfill unto thy servant thy promise for those who are devoted to thy fear.
στῆσον τῷ δούλῳ σου τὸ λόγιόν σου εἰς τὸν φόβον σου
39 Cause to pass away my disgrace of which I have dread; for thy ordinances are good.
περίελε τὸν ὀνειδισμόν μου ὃν ὑπώπτευσα τὰ γὰρ κρίματά σου χρηστά
40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: through thy righteousness do thou give my life.
ἰδοὺ ἐπεθύμησα τὰς ἐντολάς σου ἐν τῇ δικαιοσύνῃ σου ζῆσόν με
41 VAV. And let thy kindness come unto me, O Lord, thy salvation, according to thy promise.
V# ουαυ καὶ ἔλθοι ἐπ’ ἐμὲ τὸ ἔλεός σου κύριε τὸ σωτήριόν σου κατὰ τὸ λόγιόν σου
42 Then shall I have a word to answer the one that reproacheth me; for I trust in thy word.
καὶ ἀποκριθήσομαι τοῖς ὀνειδίζουσί με λόγον ὅτι ἤλπισα ἐπὶ τοὺς λόγους σου
43 And snatch not the word of truth out of my mouth too greatly; for I wait for thy ordinances.
καὶ μὴ περιέλῃς ἐκ τοῦ στόματός μου λόγον ἀληθείας ἕως σφόδρα ὅτι ἐπὶ τὰ κρίματά σου ἐπήλπισα
44 So shall I observe thy law continually for ever and ever.
καὶ φυλάξω τὸν νόμον σου διὰ παντός εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος
45 And I will walk in an open space; for thy precepts have I sought.
καὶ ἐπορευόμην ἐν πλατυσμῷ ὅτι τὰς ἐντολάς σου ἐξεζήτησα
46 And I will speak of thy testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.
καὶ ἐλάλουν ἐν τοῖς μαρτυρίοις σου ἐναντίον βασιλέων καὶ οὐκ ᾐσχυνόμην
47 And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I love.
καὶ ἐμελέτων ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς σου αἷς ἠγάπησα σφόδρα
48 And so will I lift up my hands unto thy commandments, which I love, and I will meditate on thy statutes.
καὶ ἦρα τὰς χεῖράς μου πρὸς τὰς ἐντολάς σου ἃς ἠγάπησα καὶ ἠδολέσχουν ἐν τοῖς δικαιώμασίν σου
49 ZAYIN. Remember thy word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to wait.
ζ# ζαι μνήσθητι τὸν λόγον σου τῷ δούλῳ σου ᾧ ἐπήλπισάς με
50 This is my comfort in my affliction, that thy promise hath revived me.
αὕτη με παρεκάλεσεν ἐν τῇ ταπεινώσει μου ὅτι τὸ λόγιόν σου ἔζησέν με
51 The presumptuous have held me too greatly in derision: yet have I not departed away from thy law.
ὑπερήφανοι παρηνόμουν ἕως σφόδρα ἀπὸ δὲ τοῦ νόμου σου οὐκ ἐξέκλινα
52 I remembered thy decrees [which were] from olden times, O Lord, and thus comforted myself.
ἐμνήσθην τῶν κριμάτων σου ἀπ’ αἰῶνος κύριε καὶ παρεκλήθην
53 Horror seized on me because of the wicked that forsake thy law.
ἀθυμία κατέσχεν με ἀπὸ ἁμαρτωλῶν τῶν ἐγκαταλιμπανόντων τὸν νόμον σου
54 Songs have thy statutes been unto me in the house of my pilgrimage.
ψαλτὰ ἦσάν μοι τὰ δικαιώματά σου ἐν τόπῳ παροικίας μου
55 I remembered in the night thy name, O Lord, and observed thy law.
ἐμνήσθην ἐν νυκτὶ τοῦ ὀνόματός σου κύριε καὶ ἐφύλαξα τὸν νόμον σου
56 This came to pass unto me, because I had kept thy precepts.
αὕτη ἐγενήθη μοι ὅτι τὰ δικαιώματά σου ἐξεζήτησα
57 CHETH. My portion is the Lord, have I said, that I might observe thy words.
η# ηθ μερίς μου κύριε εἶπα φυλάξασθαι τὸν νόμον σου
58 I make entreaty before thee with all my heart: be gracious unto me according to thy promise.
ἐδεήθην τοῦ προσώπου σου ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ μου ἐλέησόν με κατὰ τὸ λόγιόν σου
59 I have thought over my ways, and made my feet return unto thy testimonies.
διελογισάμην τὰς ὁδούς σου καὶ ἐπέστρεψα τοὺς πόδας μου εἰς τὰ μαρτύριά σου
60 I hastened, and delayed not to observe thy commandments.
ἡτοιμάσθην καὶ οὐκ ἐταράχθην τοῦ φυλάξασθαι τὰς ἐντολάς σου
61 Companies of wicked men have surrounded me; but I have not forgotten thy law.
σχοινία ἁμαρτωλῶν περιεπλάκησάν μοι καὶ τοῦ νόμου σου οὐκ ἐπελαθόμην
62 At midnights do I constantly rise to give thanks unto thee, because of thy righteous decrees.
μεσονύκτιον ἐξηγειρόμην τοῦ ἐξομολογεῖσθαί σοι ἐπὶ τὰ κρίματα τῆς δικαιοσύνης σου
63 An associate am I unto all that fear thee, and unto those that keep thy precepts.
μέτοχος ἐγώ εἰμι πάντων τῶν φοβουμένων σε καὶ τῶν φυλασσόντων τὰς ἐντολάς σου
64 Of thy kindness, O Lord, is the earth full: teach me thy statutes.
τοῦ ἐλέους σου κύριε πλήρης ἡ γῆ τὰ δικαιώματά σου δίδαξόν με
65 TETH. Thou hast shown goodness on thy servant, O Lord, according to thy word.
θ# τηθ χρηστότητα ἐποίησας μετὰ τοῦ δούλου σου κύριε κατὰ τὸν λόγον σου
66 The best of discernment and knowledge do thou teach me; for in thy commandments do I believe.
χρηστότητα καὶ παιδείαν καὶ γνῶσιν δίδαξόν με ὅτι ταῖς ἐντολαῖς σου ἐπίστευσα
67 Before I was afflicted I was in error; but now I observe thy saying.
πρὸ τοῦ με ταπεινωθῆναι ἐγὼ ἐπλημμέλησα διὰ τοῦτο τὸ λόγιόν σου ἐφύλαξα
68 Thou art good, and doing good: teach me thy statutes.
χρηστὸς εἶ σύ κύριε καὶ ἐν τῇ χρηστότητί σου δίδαξόν με τὰ δικαιώματά σου
69 The presumptuous have invented falsehoods against me; but I will with all my heart indeed keep thy precepts.
ἐπληθύνθη ἐπ’ ἐμὲ ἀδικία ὑπερηφάνων ἐγὼ δὲ ἐν ὅλῃ καρδίᾳ μου ἐξερευνήσω τὰς ἐντολάς σου
70 Gross as fat is their heart; but I take truly delight in thy law.
ἐτυρώθη ὡς γάλα ἡ καρδία αὐτῶν ἐγὼ δὲ τὸν νόμον σου ἐμελέτησα
71 It is well for me that I have been afflicted, in order that I might learn thy statutes.
ἀγαθόν μοι ὅτι ἐταπείνωσάς με ὅπως ἂν μάθω τὰ δικαιώματά σου
72 Better is unto me the law of thy mouth than thousands of gold and silver.
ἀγαθόν μοι ὁ νόμος τοῦ στόματός σου ὑπὲρ χιλιάδας χρυσίου καὶ ἀργυρίου
73 YOD. Thy hands have made me and established me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.
ι# ιωθ αἱ χεῖρές σου ἐποίησάν με καὶ ἔπλασάν με συνέτισόν με καὶ μαθήσομαι τὰς ἐντολάς σου
74 Those that fear thee will see me and be rejoiced; because I have waited for thy word.
οἱ φοβούμενοί σε ὄψονταί με καὶ εὐφρανθήσονται ὅτι εἰς τοὺς λόγους σου ἐπήλπισα
75 I know, O Lord, that thy decrees are righteous, and that in faithfulness thou hast afflicted me.
ἔγνων κύριε ὅτι δικαιοσύνη τὰ κρίματά σου καὶ ἀληθείᾳ ἐταπείνωσάς με
76 Let, I pray thee, thy kindness come to comfort me, according to thy promise unto thy servant.
γενηθήτω δὴ τὸ ἔλεός σου τοῦ παρακαλέσαι με κατὰ τὸ λόγιόν σου τῷ δούλῳ σου
77 Let thy mercies come unto me, that I may live; for thy law is my delight.
ἐλθέτωσάν μοι οἱ οἰκτιρμοί σου καὶ ζήσομαι ὅτι ὁ νόμος σου μελέτη μού ἐστιν
78 Let the presumptuous be made ashamed; because they have without a cause dealt perversely with me; but I will indeed meditate on thy precepts.
αἰσχυνθήτωσαν ὑπερήφανοι ὅτι ἀδίκως ἠνόμησαν εἰς ἐμέ ἐγὼ δὲ ἀδολεσχήσω ἐν ταῖς ἐντολαῖς σου
79 Let those that fear thee return unto me, and those that know thy testimonies.
ἐπιστρεψάτωσάν μοι οἱ φοβούμενοί σε καὶ οἱ γινώσκοντες τὰ μαρτύριά σου
80 Let my heart be entire in thy statutes, in order that I may not be put to shame.
γενηθήτω ἡ καρδία μου ἄμωμος ἐν τοῖς δικαιώμασίν σου ὅπως ἂν μὴ αἰσχυνθῶ
81 CAPH. My soul ardently desireth for thy salvation: for thy word do I wait.
ια# χαφ ἐκλείπει εἰς τὸ σωτήριόν σου ἡ ψυχή μου καὶ εἰς τὸν λόγον σου ἐπήλπισα
82 My eyes look eagerly for thy promise, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
ἐξέλιπον οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου εἰς τὸ λόγιόν σου λέγοντες πότε παρακαλέσεις με
83 For I am become like a bottle in the smoke: [yet] do I not forget thy statutes.
ὅτι ἐγενήθην ὡς ἀσκὸς ἐν πάχνῃ τὰ δικαιώματά σου οὐκ ἐπελαθόμην
84 How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute justice on my persecutors?
πόσαι εἰσὶν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ δούλου σου πότε ποιήσεις μοι ἐκ τῶν καταδιωκόντων με κρίσιν
85 The presumptuous have dug pits for me, which is not in accordance with thy law.
διηγήσαντό μοι παράνομοι ἀδολεσχίας ἀλλ’ οὐχ ὡς ὁ νόμος σου κύριε
86 All thy commandments are founded on truth: without cause they persecute me; help thou me.
πᾶσαι αἱ ἐντολαί σου ἀλήθεια ἀδίκως κατεδίωξάν με βοήθησόν μοι
87 But little was wanting that they had consumed me upon earth; but I have truly not forsaken thy precepts.
παρὰ βραχὺ συνετέλεσάν με ἐν τῇ γῇ ἐγὼ δὲ οὐκ ἐγκατέλιπον τὰς ἐντολάς σου
88 According to thy kindness give me life, that I may observe the testimony of thy mouth.
κατὰ τὸ ἔλεός σου ζῆσόν με καὶ φυλάξω τὰ μαρτύρια τοῦ στόματός σου
89 LAMED. To eternity, O Lord, standeth firm thy word with the heavens.
ιβ# λαβδ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα κύριε ὁ λόγος σου διαμένει ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ
90 Unto all generations endureth thy faithfulness: thou hast established the earth, and she standeth.
εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεὰν ἡ ἀλήθειά σου ἐθεμελίωσας τὴν γῆν καὶ διαμένει
91 According to thy ordinances they exist this day: for all are thy servants.
τῇ διατάξει σου διαμένει ἡ ἡμέρα ὅτι τὰ σύμπαντα δοῦλα σά
92 Unless thy law had been my delights, I should long since have been lost in my affliction.
εἰ μὴ ὅτι ὁ νόμος σου μελέτη μού ἐστιν τότε ἂν ἀπωλόμην ἐν τῇ ταπεινώσει μου
93 Never will I forget thy precepts; for with them thou hast kept me alive.
εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα οὐ μὴ ἐπιλάθωμαι τῶν δικαιωμάτων σου ὅτι ἐν αὐτοῖς ἔζησάς με κύριε
94 Thine am I, save me; for thy precepts have I sought.
σός εἰμι ἐγώ σῶσόν με ὅτι τὰ δικαιώματά σου ἐξεζήτησα
95 Wicked men have waited for me to destroy me; [but] I will reflect on thy testimonies.
ἐμὲ ὑπέμειναν ἁμαρτωλοὶ τοῦ ἀπολέσαι με τὰ μαρτύριά σου συνῆκα
96 Of all perfection have I seen the end; [but] thy commandment is exceedingly extended.
πάσης συντελείας εἶδον πέρας πλατεῖα ἡ ἐντολή σου σφόδρα
97 MEM. Oh how do I love thy law! all the day is it my (meditation)
ιγ# μημ ὡς ἠγάπησα τὸν νόμον σου κύριε ὅλην τὴν ἡμέραν μελέτη μού ἐστιν
98 Wiser than my enemy doth thy commandment make me; for it is perpetually with me.
ὑπὲρ τοὺς ἐχθρούς μου ἐσόφισάς με τὴν ἐντολήν σου ὅτι εἰς τὸν αἰῶνά μοί ἐστιν
99 Above all my teachers have I obtained intelligence; for thy testimonies are my (meditation)
ὑπὲρ πάντας τοὺς διδάσκοντάς με συνῆκα ὅτι τὰ μαρτύριά σου μελέτη μού ἐστιν
100 More than the elders do I possess understanding; because thy precepts do I keep.
ὑπὲρ πρεσβυτέρους συνῆκα ὅτι τὰς ἐντολάς σου ἐξεζήτησα
101 From every evil path have I withholden my feet, in order that I might observe thy word.
ἐκ πάσης ὁδοῦ πονηρᾶς ἐκώλυσα τοὺς πόδας μου ὅπως ἂν φυλάξω τοὺς λόγους σου
102 From thy ordinances have I not departed; for thou hast instructed me.
ἀπὸ τῶν κριμάτων σου οὐκ ἐξέκλινα ὅτι σὺ ἐνομοθέτησάς μοι
103 How much sweeter are to my palate thy sayings than honey to my mouth!
ὡς γλυκέα τῷ λάρυγγί μου τὰ λόγιά σου ὑπὲρ μέλι καὶ κηρίον τῷ στόματί μου
104 Through thy precepts shall I obtain understanding: therefore do I hate every path of falsehood.
ἀπὸ τῶν ἐντολῶν σου συνῆκα διὰ τοῦτο ἐμίσησα πᾶσαν ὁδὸν ἀδικίας ὅτι σὺ ἐνομοθέτησάς μοι
105 NUN. A lamp unto my feet is thy word, and a light unto my path.
ιδ# νουν λύχνος τοῖς ποσίν μου ὁ λόγος σου καὶ φῶς ταῖς τρίβοις μου
106 I have sworn, and I will perform it, to observe thy righteous ordinances.
ὀμώμοκα καὶ ἔστησα τοῦ φυλάξασθαι τὰ κρίματα τῆς δικαιοσύνης σου
107 I am afflicted exceedingly much: O Lord, revive me, according to thy word.
ἐταπεινώθην ἕως σφόδρα κύριε ζῆσόν με κατὰ τὸν λόγον σου
108 Receive in favor the freewill-offerings of my mouth, I beseech thee, O Lord, and teach me thy ordinances.
τὰ ἑκούσια τοῦ στόματός μου εὐδόκησον δή κύριε καὶ τὰ κρίματά σου δίδαξόν με
109 My life is in my hand continually: yet thy law do I not forget.
ἡ ψυχή μου ἐν ταῖς χερσίν μου διὰ παντός καὶ τοῦ νόμου σου οὐκ ἐπελαθόμην
110 The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet have I not erred from thy precepts.
ἔθεντο ἁμαρτωλοὶ παγίδα μοι καὶ ἐκ τῶν ἐντολῶν σου οὐκ ἐπλανήθην
111 I have taken thy testimonies as a heritage to eternity; for they are the joy of my heart.
ἐκληρονόμησα τὰ μαρτύριά σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ὅτι ἀγαλλίαμα τῆς καρδίας μού εἰσιν
112 I have inclined my heart to perform thy statutes always, in all their ways.
ἔκλινα τὴν καρδίαν μου τοῦ ποιῆσαι τὰ δικαιώματά σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα δῑ ἀντάμειψιν
113 SAMECH. Those of divided thoughts I hate; but thy law do I love.
ιε# σαμχ παρανόμους ἐμίσησα καὶ τὸν νόμον σου ἠγάπησα
114 My shelter and my shield art thou: for thy word do I wait.
βοηθός μου καὶ ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου εἶ σύ εἰς τὸν λόγον σου ἐπήλπισα
115 Depart from me, ye evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of God.
ἐκκλίνατε ἀπ’ ἐμοῦ πονηρευόμενοι καὶ ἐξερευνήσω τὰς ἐντολὰς τοῦ θεοῦ μου
116 Uphold me according to thy promise, that I may live, and let me not be made ashamed of my hope.
ἀντιλαβοῦ μου κατὰ τὸ λόγιόν σου καὶ ζήσομαι καὶ μὴ καταισχύνῃς με ἀπὸ τῆς προσδοκίας μου
117 Support me that I may be placed in safety, and I will direct my regard unto thy statutes continually.
βοήθησόν μοι καὶ σωθήσομαι καὶ μελετήσω ἐν τοῖς δικαιώμασίν σου διὰ παντός
118 Thou hast trodden down all that erringly stray from thy statutes; for falsehood is their deceit.
ἐξουδένωσας πάντας τοὺς ἀποστατοῦντας ἀπὸ τῶν δικαιωμάτων σου ὅτι ἄδικον τὸ ἐνθύμημα αὐτῶν
119 Like dross dost thou put away all the wicked of the earth: therefore do I love thy testimonies.
παραβαίνοντας ἐλογισάμην πάντας τοὺς ἁμαρτωλοὺς τῆς γῆς διὰ τοῦτο ἠγάπησα τὰ μαρτύριά σου διὰ παντός
120 My flesh trembleth shudderingly from dread of thee, and of thy decrees am I afraid.
καθήλωσον ἐκ τοῦ φόβου σου τὰς σάρκας μου ἀπὸ γὰρ τῶν κριμάτων σου ἐφοβήθην
121 'AYIN. I have executed justice and righteousness: leave me not to those who oppress me.
ιV# αιν ἐποίησα κρίμα καὶ δικαιοσύνην μὴ παραδῷς με τοῖς ἀδικοῦσίν με
122 Protect thy servant for good: let not the presumptuous oppress me.

οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἐξέλιπον εἰς τὸ σωτήριόν σου καὶ εἰς τὸ λόγιον τῆς δικαιοσύνης σου
124 Deal with thy servant according to thy kindness, and thy statutes do thou teach me.
ποίησον μετὰ τοῦ δούλου σου κατὰ τὸ ἔλεός σου καὶ τὰ δικαιώματά σου δίδαξόν με
125 I am thy servant: give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.
δοῦλός σού εἰμι ἐγώ συνέτισόν με καὶ γνώσομαι τὰ μαρτύριά σου
126 It is time to act for the Lord: they have broken thy law.
καιρὸς τοῦ ποιῆσαι τῷ κυρίῳ διεσκέδασαν τὸν νόμον σου
127 Therefore do I love thy commandments more than gold, and more than fine gold.
διὰ τοῦτο ἠγάπησα τὰς ἐντολάς σου ὑπὲρ χρυσίον καὶ τοπάζιον
128 Therefore do I esteem all thy precepts in all things as right: every path of falsehood do I hate.
διὰ τοῦτο πρὸς πάσας τὰς ἐντολάς σου κατωρθούμην πᾶσαν ὁδὸν ἄδικον ἐμίσησα
129 PE. Wonderful are thy testimonies: therefore doth my soul keep them.
ιζ# φη θαυμαστὰ τὰ μαρτύριά σου διὰ τοῦτο ἐξηρεύνησεν αὐτὰ ἡ ψυχή μου
130 The opening of thy words giveth light, it giveth understanding unto the simple.
ἡ δήλωσις τῶν λόγων σου φωτιεῖ καὶ συνετιεῖ νηπίους
131 I opened my mouth, and panted for breath; because for thy commandments did I long.
τὸ στόμα μου ἤνοιξα καὶ εἵλκυσα πνεῦμα ὅτι τὰς ἐντολάς σου ἐπεπόθουν
132 Turn thou unto me, and be gracious unto me, as is thy wont unto those that love thy name.
ἐπίβλεψον ἐπ’ ἐμὲ καὶ ἐλέησόν με κατὰ τὸ κρίμα τῶν ἀγαπώντων τὸ ὄνομά σου
133 My steps establish thou through thy promise, and suffer not any wrong to have dominion over me.
τὰ διαβήματά μου κατεύθυνον κατὰ τὸ λόγιόν σου καὶ μὴ κατακυριευσάτω μου πᾶσα ἀνομία
134 Deliver me from the oppression of man, and I will observe thy precepts.
λύτρωσαί με ἀπὸ συκοφαντίας ἀνθρώπων καὶ φυλάξω τὰς ἐντολάς σου
135 Let thy face shine upon thy servant, and teach me thy statutes.
τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἐπίφανον ἐπὶ τὸν δοῦλόν σου καὶ δίδαξόν με τὰ δικαιώματά σου
136 Streams of water have run down my eyes; because they had not observed thy law.
διεξόδους ὑδάτων κατέβησαν οἱ ὀφθαλμοί μου ἐπεὶ οὐκ ἐφύλαξαν τὸν νόμον σου
137 TZADDE. Righteous art thou, O Lord, and upright are thy decrees.
ιη# σαδη δίκαιος εἶ κύριε καὶ εὐθὴς ἡ κρίσις σου
138 Thou hast commanded thy testimonies, as righteous and faithful exceedingly.
ἐνετείλω δικαιοσύνην τὰ μαρτύριά σου καὶ ἀλήθειαν σφόδρα
139 My zeal destroyeth me; because my assailants have forgotten thy words.
ἐξέτηξέν με ὁ ζῆλος τοῦ οἴκου σου ὅτι ἐπελάθοντο τῶν λόγων σου οἱ ἐχθροί μου
140 Thy promise is greatly refined, and thy servant loveth it.
πεπυρωμένον τὸ λόγιόν σου σφόδρα καὶ ὁ δοῦλός σου ἠγάπησεν αὐτό
141 I am little and despised: yet thy precepts have I not forgotten.
νεώτερός εἰμι ἐγὼ καὶ ἐξουδενωμένος τὰ δικαιώματά σου οὐκ ἐπελαθόμην
142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.
ἡ δικαιοσύνη σου δικαιοσύνη εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα καὶ ὁ νόμος σου ἀλήθεια
