Psalms 119:120-138 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

120. My flesh shudders for fear of You, and I am in awe of Your judgments.

121. I did what is just and right. Do not leave me to my oppressors.

122. Guarantee Your servant’s well-being. Do not let arrogant ones oppress me.

123. My eyes fail, longing for Your salvation and for Your righteous word.

124. Deal with Your servant as befits Your lovingkindness, and teach me Your statutes.

125. I am Your servant, give me discernment, so I may understand Your testimonies.

126. It is time for Adonai to act— they have violated Your Torah!

127. Therefore I love Your mitzvot more than gold, more than pure gold.

128. Therefore I esteem all Your precepts as right in every way —every false way I hate.

129. Your testimonies are wonderful. Therefore my soul obeys them.

130. The unfolding of Your words gives light, giving understanding to the simple.

131. I opened my mouth wide and panted, for I longed for Your mitzvot.

132. Turn to me and be gracious to me, as is fitting to those who love Your Name.

133. Direct my footsteps in Your word, and let no iniquity get mastery over me.

134. Redeem me from human oppression, and I will keep Your precepts.

135. Make Your face shine on Your servant, and teach me Your decrees.

136. Streams of water run down from my eyes, because they do not observe Your Torah.

137. Righteous are You, Adonai, and Your judgments are upright.

138. You have commanded righteousness, Your testimonies, and great faithfulness.
