119. You put away and count as dross all the wicked of the earth [for there is no true metal in them]; therefore I love Your testimonies.

121. I have done justice and righteousness; leave me not to those who would oppress me.
122. Be surety for Your servant for good [as Judah was surety for the safety of Benjamin]; let not the proud oppress me. [Gen. 43:9.]
123. My eyes fail, watching for Your salvation and for the fulfillment of Your righteous promise.
124. Deal with Your servant according to Your mercy and loving-kindness, and teach me Your statutes.
125. I am Your servant; give me understanding (discernment and comprehension), that I may know (discern and be familiar with the character of) Your testimonies.
