for I have kept thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 23Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 24Thy testimonies also are my delight and my counselors. <\/p>\n<p> 25My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 26I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 27Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works. <\/p>\n<p> 28My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 29Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously. <\/p>\n<p> 30I have chosen the way of truth: thy judgments have I laid before me. <\/p>\n<p> 31I have stuck unto thy testimonies: O LORD, put me not to shame. <\/p>\n<p> 32I will run the way of thy commandments, when thou shalt enlarge my heart. <\/p>\n<p> 33Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end. <\/p>\n<p> 34Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart. <\/p>\n<p> 35Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight. <\/p>\n<p> 36Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness. <\/p>\n<p> 37Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way. <\/p>\n<p> 38Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear. <\/p>\n<p> 39Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good. <\/p>\n<p> 40Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness. <\/p>\n<p> 41Let thy mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even thy salvation, according to thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 42So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me: for I trust in thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 43And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 44So shall I keep thy law continually for ever and ever. <\/p>\n<p> 45And I will walk at liberty: for I seek thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 46I will speak of thy testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed. <\/p>\n<p> 47And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved. <\/p>\n<p> 48My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 49Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope. <\/p>\n<p> 50This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me. <\/p>\n<p> 51The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not declined from thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 52I remembered thy judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself. <\/p>\n<p> 53Horror hath taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 54Thy statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage. <\/p>\n<p> 55I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 56This I had, because I kept thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 57Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words. <\/p>\n<p> 58I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: be merciful unto me according to thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 59I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 60I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments. <\/p>\n<p> 61The bands of the wicked have robbed me: but I have not forgotten thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 62At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee because of thy righteous judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 63I am a companion of all them that fear thee, and of them that keep thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 64The earth, O LORD, is full of thy mercy: teach me thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 65Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 66Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments. <\/p>\n<p> 67Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 68Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 69The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart. <\/p>\n<p> 70Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 71It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 72The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver. <\/p>\n<p> 73Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments. <\/p>\n<p> 74They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 75I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me. <\/p>\n<p> 76Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant. <\/p>\n<p> 77Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight. <\/p>\n<p> 78Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 79Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 80Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed. <\/p>\n<p> 81My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 82Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me? <\/p>\n<p> 83For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet do I not forget thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 84How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me? <\/p>\n<p> 85The proud have digged pits for me, which are not after thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 86All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me. <\/p>\n<p> 87They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 88Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth. <\/p>\n<p> 89For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven. <\/p>\n<p> 90Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: thou hast established the earth, and it abideth. <\/p>\n<p> 91They continue this day according to thine ordinances: for all are thy servants. <\/p>\n<p> 92Unless thy law had been my delights, I should then have perished in mine affliction. <\/p>\n<p> 93I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me. <\/p>\n<p> 94I am thine, save me: for I have sought thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 95The wicked have waited for me to destroy me: but I will consider thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 96I have seen an end of all perfection: but thy commandment is exceeding broad. <\/p>\n<p> 97O how love I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. <\/p>\n<p> 98Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. <\/p>\n<p> 99I have more understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. <\/p>\n<p> 100I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 101I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 102I have not departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me. <\/p>\n<p> 103How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! <\/p>\n<p> 104Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way. <\/p>\n<p> 105Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. <\/p>\n<p> 106I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 107I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 108Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 109My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 110The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 111Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart. <\/p>\n<p> 112I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end. <\/p>\n<p> 113I hate vain thoughts: but thy law do I love. <\/p>\n<p> 114Thou art my hiding place and my shield: I hope in thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 115Depart from me, ye evildoers: for I will keep the commandments of my God. <\/p>\n<p> 116Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope. <\/p>\n<p> 117Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually. <\/p>\n<p> 118Thou hast trodden down all them that err from thy statutes: for their deceit is falsehood. <\/p>\n<p> 119Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross: therefore I love thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 120My flesh trembleth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 121I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors. <\/p>\n<p> 122Be surety for thy servant for good: let not the proud oppress me. <\/p>\n<p> 123Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the word of thy righteousness. <\/p>\n<p> 124Deal with thy servant according unto thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 125I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 126It is time for thee, LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 127Therefore I love thy commandments above gold; yea, above fine gold. <\/p>\n<p> 128Therefore I esteem all thy precepts concerning all things to be right; and I hate every false way. <\/p>\n<p> 129Thy testimonies are wonderful: therefore doth my soul keep them. <\/p>\n<p> 130The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple. <\/p>\n<p> 131I opened my mouth, and panted: for I longed for thy commandments. <\/p>\n<p> 132Look thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as thou usest to do unto those that love thy name. <\/p>\n<p> 133Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me. <\/p>\n<p> 134Deliver me from the oppression of man: so will I keep thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 135Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 136Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 137Righteous art thou, O LORD, and upright are thy judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 138Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded are righteous and very faithful. <\/p>\n<p> 139My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words. <\/p>\n<p> 140Thy word is very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it. <\/p>\n<p> 141I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 142Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth. <\/p>\n<p> 143Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights. <\/p>\n<p> 144The righteousness of thy testimonies is everlasting: give me understanding, and I shall live. <\/p>\n<p> 145I cried with my whole heart; hear me, O LORD: I will keep thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 146I cried unto thee; save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 147I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 148Mine eyes prevent the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 149Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: O LORD, quicken me according to thy judgment. <\/p>\n<p> 150They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 151Thou art near, O LORD; and all thy commandments are truth. <\/p>\n<p> 152Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever. <\/p>\n<p> 153Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law. <\/p>\n<p> 154Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 155Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 156Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 157Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies. <\/p>\n<p> 158I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 159Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness. <\/p>\n<p> 160Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever. <\/p>\n<p> 161Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 162I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil. <\/p>\n<p> 163I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love. <\/p>\n<p> 164Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments. <\/p>\n<p> 165Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them. <\/p>\n<p> 166LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments. <\/p>\n<p> 167My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly. <\/p>\n<p> 168I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee. <\/p>\n<p> 169Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 170Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word. <\/p>\n<p> 171My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes. <\/p>\n<p> 172My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness. <\/p>\n<p> 173Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts. <\/p>\n<p> 174I have longed for thy salvation, O LORD; and thy law is my delight. <\/p>\n<p> 175Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me. <\/p>\n<p> 176I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Psalm 119 (King James Version) 1Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the LORD.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-68","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-our-thoughts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=68"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/68\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=68"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=68"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.accesstogod.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=68"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
