New International Reader's Version

Psalm 119:130-137 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

130. When your words are made clear, they bring light. They bring understanding to childish people.

131. I open my mouth and pant like a dog, because I long to know your commands.

132. Turn to me and show me your favor. That's what you've always done for those who love you.

133. Teach me how to live as you have promised. Don't let any sin be my master.

134. Set me free from men who beat me down. Then I will obey your rules.

135. Let your face smile on me with favor. Teach me your orders.

136. Streams of tears flow from my eyes, because people don't obey your law.

137. Lord, you do what is fair. And your laws are right.
