Psalms 118:10-119:40
Chapter 118
10 All nations (C1)surrounded me;
In the name of the LORD I will certainly (C2)fend them off.
11 They (C1)surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me;
In the name of the LORD I will certainly fend them off.
12 They surrounded me (C1)like bees;
They were extinguished like a (C2)fire of thorn bushes;
In the name of the LORD I will certainly fend them off.
13 You (C1)pushed me violently so that I (F1)was falling,
But the LORD (C2)helped me.
14 (F1)(C1)The LORD is my strength and song,
And He has become (C2)my salvation.
15 The sound of (C1)joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous;
The (C2)right hand of the LORD performs valiantly.
16 The (C1)right hand of the LORD is exalted;
The right hand of the LORD performs valiantly.
17 I (C1)will not die, but live,
And (C2)tell of the works of (F1)the LORD.
18 (F1)The LORD has (C1)disciplined me severely,
But He has (C2)not turned me over to death.
19 (C1)Open the gates of righteousness to me;
I will enter through them, I will give thanks to (F1)the LORD.
20 This is the gate of the LORD;
The (C1)righteous will enter through it.
21 I will give thanks to You, for You have (C1)answered me,
And You have (C2)become my salvation.
22 A (C1)stone which the builders rejected
Has become the (F1)chief cornerstone.
23 This came about from the LORD;
It is marvelous in our eyes.
24 This is the day which the LORD has made;
Let's (C1)rejoice and be glad in it.
25 Please, O LORD, (C1)do save us;
Please, O LORD, do send (C2)prosperity!
26 (C1)Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD;
We have (C2)blessed you from the house of the LORD.
27 (C1)The LORD is God, and He has given us (C2)light;
Bind the festival sacrifice (F1)to the (C3)horns of the altar with cords.
28 (C1)You are my God, and I give thanks to You;
You are my God, (C2)I exalt You.
29 (C1)Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good;
For His mercy is everlasting.
Chapter 119
Meditations and Prayers Relating to the Law of God.

And (C2)seek Him (C3)with all their heart.
3 They also (C1)do no injustice;
They walk in His ways.
4 You have (F1)(C1)ordained Your precepts,
(F2)That we are to keep them diligently.
5 Oh that my (C1)ways may be established
To (C2)keep Your statutes!

When I look at all Your commandments.

Do not utterly (C1)abandon me!

Your servant (C2)meditates on Your statutes.

They are (F1)my advisers.
25 My (C1)soul clings to the dust;
(C2)Revive me (C3)according to Your word.
26 I have told of my ways, and You have answered me;
(C1)Teach me Your statutes.
27 Make me understand the way of Your precepts,
And I will (C1)meditate on Your wonders.
28 My (C1)soul (F1)weeps because of grief;
(C2)Strengthen me according to Your word.
29 Remove the false way from me,
And graciously grant me Your Law.
30 I have chosen the faithful way;
I have (F1)placed Your judgments before me.
31 I (C1)cling to Your testimonies;
LORD, do not put me to shame!
32 I shall run the way of Your commandments,
For You will (C1)enlarge my heart.
33 (C1)Teach me the way of Your statutes, LORD,
And I shall comply with it to the end.
34 (C1)Give me understanding, so that I may (C2)comply with Your Law
And keep it (C3)with all my heart.
35 Make me walk in the (C1)path of Your commandments,
For I (C2)delight in it.
36 (C1)Incline my heart to Your testimonies,
And not to (C2)dishonest gain.
37 Turn my (C1)eyes away from looking at what is worthless,
And (C2)revive me in Your ways.
38 (C1)Establish Your (F1)word to Your servant
(F2)As that which produces reverence for You.
39 (C1)Take away my disgrace which I dread,
For Your judgments are good.
40 Behold, I (C1)long for Your precepts;
Revive me through Your righteousness.<
