Psalm 119. XIV, XV, XVI, XVII, XVIII.

XIV. Lucerna pedibus meis.

105. Your word is a lantern to my feet *
     and a light upon my path.
106. I have sworn and am determined *
     to keep your righteous judgments.
107. I am deeply troubled; *
     preserve my life, O Lord, according to your word.
108. Accept, O Lord, the willing tribute of my lips, *
     and teach me your judgments.
109. My life is always in my hand, *
     yet I do not forget your law.
110. The wicked have set a trap for me, *
     but I have not strayed from your commandments.
111. Your decrees are my inheritance for ever; *
     truly, they are the joy of my heart.
112. I have applied my heart to fulfill your statutes *
     for ever and to the end.

XV. Samekh Iniquos odio habui

113. I hate those who have a divided heart, *
     but your law do I love.
114. You are my refuge and shield; *
     my hope is in your word.
115. Away from me, you wicked! *
     I will keep the commandments of my God.
116. Sustain me according to your promise, that I may live, *
     and let me not be disappointed in my hope.
117. Hold me up, and I shall be safe, *
     and my delight shall be ever in your statutes.
118. You spurn all who stray from your statutes; *
     their deceitfulness is in vain.
119. In your sight all the wicked of the earth are but dross; *
     therefore I love your decrees.
120. My flesh trembles with dread of you; *
     I am afraid of your judgments.

XVI. Ayin Feci judicium

121. I have done what is just and right; *
     do not deliver me to my oppressors.
122. Be surety for your servant's good; *
     let not the proud oppress me.
123. My eyes have failed from watching for your salvation *
     and for your righteous promise.
124. Deal with your servant according to your lovingkindness *
     and teach me your statutes.
125. I am your servant; grant me understanding, *
     that I may know your decrees.
126. It is time for you to act, O Lord, *
     for they have broken your law.
127. Truly, I love your commandments *
     more than gold and precious stones.
128. I hold all your commandments to be right for me; *
     all paths of falsehood I abhor.

XVII. Pe Mirabilia

129. Your decrees are wonderful; *
     therefore I obey them with all my heart.
130. When your word goes forth it gives light; *
     it gives understanding to the simple.
131. I open my mouth and pant; *
     I long for your commandments.
132. Turn to me in mercy, *
     as you always do to those who love your Name.
133. Steady my footsteps in your word; *
     let no iniquity have dominion over me.
134. Rescue me from those who oppress me, *
     and I will keep your commandments.
135. Let your countenance shine upon your servant *
     and teach me your statutes.
136. My eyes shed streams of tears, *
     because people do not keep your law.

XVIII. Sadhe Justus es, Domine

137. You are righteous, O Lord, *
     and upright are your judgments.
138. You have issued your decrees *
     with justice and in perfect faithfulness.
139. My indignation has consumed me, *
     because my enemies forget your words.
140. Your word has been tested to the uttermost, *
     and your servant holds it dear.
141. I am small and of little account, *
     yet I do not forget your commandments.
142. Your justice is an everlasting justice *
     and your law is the truth.
143. Trouble and distress have come upon me, *
     yet your commandments are my delight.
144. The righteousness of your decrees is everlasting; *
     grant me understanding, that I may live.
