⁹⁷ How I ^(A)love Your Law!
It is my ^(B)meditation all the day.
⁹⁸ Your ^(C)commandments make me wiser than my enemies,
For they are ever ^[a]mine.
⁹⁹ I have more insight than all my teachers,
For Your testimonies are my ^(D)meditation.
¹⁰⁰ I understand ^(E)more than those who are old,
Because I have ^(F)complied with Your precepts.
¹⁰¹ I have ^(G)restrained my feet from every evil way,
So that I may keep Your word.
¹⁰² I have not ^(H)turned aside from Your judgments,
For You Yourself have taught me.
¹⁰³ How ^(I)sweet are Your ^[b]words to my ^[c]taste!
Yes, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
¹⁰⁴ From Your precepts I ^(J)get understanding;
Therefore I ^(K)hate every false way.

¹⁰⁵ Your word is a ^(L)lamp to my feet
And a light to my path.
¹⁰⁶ I have ^(M)sworn and I will confirm it,
That I will keep Your righteous judgments.
¹⁰⁷ I am exceedingly ^(N)afflicted;
^[d](O)Revive me, Lord, according to Your word.
¹⁰⁸ Be pleased to accept the ^(P)[e]voluntary offerings of my mouth, Lord,
And ^(Q)teach me Your judgments.
¹⁰⁹ My ^[f](R)life is continually ^[g]in my hand,
Yet I do not ^(S)forget Your Law.
¹¹⁰ The wicked have ^(T)set a ^[h]trap for me,
Yet I have not ^(U)wandered from Your precepts.
¹¹¹ I have ^(V)inherited Your testimonies forever,
For they are the ^(W)joy of my heart.
¹¹² I have ^(X)inclined my heart to perform Your statutes
Forever, even ^(Y)to the end.

¹¹³ I hate those who are ^(Z)double-minded,
But I love Your ^(AA)Law.
¹¹⁴ You are my ^(AB)hiding place and my ^(AC)shield;
I ^[i](AD)wait for Your word.
^115 (AE)Leave me, you evildoers,
So that I may ^(AF)comply with the commandments of my God.
^116 (AG)Sustain me according to Your ^[j]word, that I may live;
And ^(AH)do not let me be ^[k]ashamed of my hope.
¹¹⁷ Sustain me so that I may be ^(AI)safe,
That I may ^(AJ)have regard for Your statutes continually.
¹¹⁸ You have ^[l]rejected all those ^(AK)who stray from Your statutes,
For their deceitfulness is ^[m]useless.
¹¹⁹ You have ^[n]removed all the wicked of the earth like ^[o](AL)impurities;
Therefore I ^(AM)love Your testimonies.
¹²⁰ My flesh ^[p](AN)trembles from the fear of You,
And I am ^(AO)afraid of Your judgments.

¹²¹ I have ^(AP)done justice and righteousness;
Do not leave me to my oppressors.
¹²² Be ^(AQ)a guarantor for Your servant for good;
Do not let the arrogant ^(AR)oppress me.
¹²³ My ^(AS)eyes fail with longing for Your salvation,
And for Your righteous ^[q]word.
¹²⁴ Deal with Your servant ^(AT)according to Your graciousness,
And ^(AU)teach me Your statutes.
^125 (AV)I am Your servant; ^(AW)give me understanding,
So that I may know Your testimonies.
¹²⁶ It is time for the Lord to ^(AX)act,
For they have broken Your Law.
¹²⁷ Therefore I ^(AY)love Your commandments
Above gold, yes, above pure gold.
¹²⁸ Therefore I carefully follow all Your ^(AZ)precepts concerning everything,
I ^(BA)hate every false way.
