Salmos 119
Louis Segond 1910
1Heureux ceux qui sont intègres dans leur voie, Qui marchent selon la loi de l’Éternel!
2Heureux ceux qui gardent ses préceptes, Qui le cherchent de tout leur cœur,
3Qui ne commettent point d’iniquité, Et qui marchent dans ses voies!
4Tu as prescrit tes ordonnances, Pour qu’on les observe avec soin.
5Puissent mes actions être bien réglées, Afin que je garde tes statuts!
6Alors je ne rougirai point, A la vue de tous tes commandements.
7Je te louerai dans la droiture de mon cœur, En apprenant les lois de ta justice.
8Je veux garder tes statuts: Ne m’abandonne pas entièrement!
9Comment le jeune homme rendra-t-il pur son sentier? En se dirigeant d’après ta parole.
10Je te cherche de tout mon cœur: Ne me laisse pas égarer loin de tes commandements!
11Je serre ta parole dans mon cœur, Afin de ne pas pécher contre toi.
12Béni sois-tu, ô Éternel! Enseigne-moi tes statuts!
13De mes lèvres j’énumère Toutes les sentences de ta bouche.
14Je me réjouis en suivant tes préceptes, Comme si je possédais tous les trésors.
15Je médite tes ordonnances, J’ai tes sentiers sous les yeux.
16Je fais mes délices de tes statuts, Je n’oublie point ta parole.
17Fais du bien à ton serviteur, pour que je vive Et que j’observe ta parole!
18Ouvre mes yeux, pour que je contemple Les merveilles de ta loi!
19Je suis un étranger sur la terre: Ne me cache pas tes commandements!
20Mon âme est brisée par le désir Qui toujours la porte vers tes lois.
21Tu menaces les orgueilleux, ces maudits, Qui s’égarent loin de tes commandements.
22Décharge-moi de l’opprobre et du mépris! Car j’observe tes préceptes.
23Des princes ont beau s’asseoir et parler contre moi, Ton serviteur médite tes statuts.
24Tes préceptes font mes délices, Ce sont mes conseillers.
25Mon âme est attachée à la poussière: Rends-moi la vie selon ta parole!
26Je raconte mes voies, et tu m’exauces: Enseigne-moi tes statuts!
27Fais-moi comprendre la voie de tes ordonnances, Et je méditerai sur tes merveilles!
28Mon âme pleure de chagrin: Relève-moi selon ta parole!
29Éloigne de moi la voie du mensonge, Et accorde-moi la grâce de suivre ta loi!
30Je choisis la voie de la vérité, Je place tes lois sous mes yeux.
31Je m’attache à tes préceptes: Éternel, ne me rends point confus!
32Je cours dans la voie de tes commandements, Car tu élargis mon cœur.
33Enseigne-moi, Éternel, la voie de tes statuts, Pour que je la retienne jusqu’à la fin!
34Donne-moi l’intelligence, pour que je garde ta loi Et que je l’observe de tout mon cœur!
35Conduis-moi dans le sentier de tes commandements! Car je l’aime.
36Incline mon cœur vers tes préceptes, Et non vers le gain!
37Détourne mes yeux de la vue des choses vaines, Fais-moi vivre dans ta voie!
38Accomplis envers ton serviteur ta promesse, Qui est pour ceux qui te craignent!
39Éloigne de moi l’opprobre que je redoute! Car tes jugements sont pleins de bonté.
40Voici, je désire pratiquer tes ordonnances: Fais-moi vivre dans ta justice!
41Éternel, que ta miséricorde vienne sur moi, Ton salut selon ta promesse!
42Et je pourrai répondre à celui qui m’outrage, Car je me confie en ta parole.
43N’ôte pas entièrement de ma bouche la parole de la vérité! Car j’espère en tes jugements.
44Je garderai ta loi constamment, A toujours et à perpétuité.
45Je marcherai au large, Car je recherche tes ordonnances.
46Je parlerai de tes préceptes devant les rois, Et je ne rougirai point.
47Je fais mes délices de tes commandements. Je les aime.
48Je lève mes mains vers tes commandements que j’aime, Et je veux méditer tes statuts.
49Souviens-toi de ta promesse à ton serviteur, Puisque tu m’as donné l’espérance!
50C’est ma consolation dans ma misère, Car ta promesse me rend la vie.
51Des orgueilleux me chargent de railleries; Je ne m’écarte point de ta loi.
52Je pense à tes jugements d’autrefois, ô Éternel! Et je me console.
53Une colère ardente me saisit à la vue des méchants Qui abandonnent ta loi.
54Tes statuts sont le sujet de mes cantiques, Dans la maison où je suis étranger.
55La nuit je me rappelle ton nom, ô Éternel! Et je garde ta loi.
56C’est là ce qui m’est propre, Car j’observe tes ordonnances.
57Ma part, ô Éternel! Je le dis, C’est de garder tes paroles.
58Je t’implore de tout mon cœur: Aie pitié de moi, selon ta promesse!
59Je réfléchis à mes voies, Et je dirige mes pieds vers tes préceptes.
60Je me hâte, je ne diffère point D’observer tes commandements.
61Les pièges des méchants m’environnent; Je n’oublie point ta loi.
62Au milieu de la nuit je me lève pour te louer, A cause des jugements de ta justice.
63Je suis l’ami de tous ceux qui te craignent, Et de ceux qui gardent tes ordonnances.
64La terre, ô Éternel! Est pleine de ta bonté; Enseigne-moi tes statuts!
65Tu fais du bien à ton serviteur, O Éternel! Selon ta promesse.
66Enseigne-moi le bon sens et l’intelligence! Car je crois à tes commandements.
67Avant d’avoir été humilié, je m’égarais; Maintenant j’observe ta parole.
68Tu es bon et bienfaisant; Enseigne-moi tes statuts!
69Des orgueilleux imaginent contre moi des faussetés; Moi, je garde de tout mon cœur tes ordonnances.
70Leur cœur est insensible comme la graisse; Moi, je fais mes délices de ta loi.
71Il m’est bon d’être humilié, Afin que j’apprenne tes statuts.
72Mieux vaut pour moi la loi de ta bouche Que mille objets d’or et d’argent.
73Tes mains m’ont créé, elles m’ont formé; Donne-moi l’intelligence, pour que j’apprenne tes commandements!
74Ceux qui te craignent me voient et se réjouissent, Car j’espère en tes promesses.
75Je sais, ô Éternel! Que tes jugements sont justes; C’est par fidélité que tu m’as humilié.
76Que ta bonté soit ma consolation, Comme tu l’as promis à ton serviteur!
77Que tes compassions viennent sur moi, pour que je vive! Car ta loi fait mes délices.
78Qu’ils soient confondus, les orgueilleux qui m’oppriment sans cause! Moi, je médite sur tes ordonnances.
79Qu’ils reviennent à moi, ceux qui te craignent, Et ceux qui connaissent tes préceptes!
80Que mon cœur soit sincère dans tes statuts, Afin que je ne sois pas couvert de honte!
81Mon âme languit après ton salut; J’espère en ta promesse.
82Mes yeux languissent après ta promesse; Je dis: Quand me consoleras-tu?
83Car je suis comme une outre dans la fumée; Je n’oublie point tes statuts.
84Quel est le nombre des jours de ton serviteur? Quand feras-tu justice de ceux qui me persécutent?
85Des orgueilleux creusent des fosses devant moi; Ils n’agissent point selon ta loi.
86Tous tes commandements ne sont que fidélité; Ils me persécutent sans cause: secours-moi!
87Ils ont failli me terrasser et m’anéantir; Et moi, je n’abandonne point tes ordonnances.
88Rends-moi la vie selon ta bonté, Afin que j’observe les préceptes de ta bouche!
89A toujours, ô Éternel! Ta parole subsiste dans les cieux.
90De génération en génération ta fidélité subsiste; Tu as fondé la terre, et elle demeure ferme.
91C’est d’après tes lois que tout subsiste aujourd’hui, Car toutes choses te sont assujetties.
92Si ta loi n’eût fait mes délices, J’eusse alors péri dans ma misère.
93Je n’oublierai jamais tes ordonnances, Car c’est par elles que tu me rends la vie.
94Je suis à toi: sauve-moi! Car je recherche tes ordonnances.
95Des méchants m’attendent pour me faire périr; Je suis attentif à tes préceptes.
96Je vois des bornes à tout ce qui est parfait: Tes commandements n’ont point de limite.
97Combien j’aime ta loi! Elle est tout le jour l’objet de ma méditation.
98Tes commandements me rendent plus sage que mes ennemis, Car je les ai toujours avec moi.
99Je suis plus instruit que tous mes maîtres, Car tes préceptes sont l’objet de ma méditation.
100J’ai plus d’intelligence que les vieillards, Car j’observe tes ordonnances.
101Je retiens mon pied loin de tout mauvais chemin, Afin de garder ta parole.
102Je ne m’écarte pas de tes lois, Car c’est toi qui m’enseignes.
103Que tes paroles sont douces à mon palais, Plus que le miel à ma bouche!
104Par tes ordonnances je deviens intelligent, Aussi je hais toute voie de mensonge.
105Ta parole est une lampe à mes pieds, Et une lumière sur mon sentier.
106Je jure, et je le tiendrai, D’observer les lois de ta justice.
107Je suis bien humilié: Éternel, rends-moi la vie selon ta parole!
108Agrée, ô Éternel! Les sentiments que ma bouche exprime, Et enseigne-moi tes lois!
109Ma vie est continuellement exposée, Et je n’oublie point ta loi.
110Des méchants me tendent des pièges, Et je ne m’égare pas loin de tes ordonnances.
111Tes préceptes sont pour toujours mon héritage, Car ils sont la joie de mon cœur.
112J’incline mon cœur à pratiquer tes statuts, Toujours, jusqu’à la fin.
113Je hais les hommes indécis, Et j’aime ta loi.
114Tu es mon asile et mon bouclier; J’espère en ta promesse.
115Éloignez-vous de moi, méchants, Afin que j’observe les commandements de mon Dieu!
116Soutiens-moi selon ta promesse, afin que je vive, Et ne me rends point confus dans mon espérance!
117Sois mon appui, pour que je sois sauvé, Et que je m’occupe sans cesse de tes statuts!
118Tu méprises tous ceux qui s’écartent de tes statuts, Car leur tromperie est sans effet.
119Tu enlèves comme de l’écume tous les méchants de la terre; C’est pourquoi j’aime tes préceptes.
120Ma chair frissonne de l’effroi que tu m’inspires, Et je crains tes jugements.
121J’observe la loi et la justice: Ne m’abandonne pas à mes oppresseurs!
122Prends sous ta garantie le bien de ton serviteur, Ne me laisse pas opprimer par des orgueilleux!
123Mes yeux languissent après ton salut, Et après la promesse de ta justice.
124Agis envers ton serviteur selon ta bonté, Et enseigne-moi tes statuts!
125Je suis ton serviteur: donne-moi l’intelligence, Pour que je connaisse tes préceptes!
126Il est temps que l’Éternel agisse: Ils transgressent ta loi.
127C’est pourquoi j’aime tes commandements, Plus que l’or et que l’or fin;
128C’est pourquoi je trouve justes toutes tes ordonnances, Je hais toute voie de mensonge.
129Tes préceptes sont admirables: Aussi mon âme les observe.
130La révélation de tes paroles éclaire, Elle donne de l’intelligence aux simples.
131J’ouvre la bouche et je soupire, Car je suis avide de tes commandements.
132Tourne vers moi ta face, et aie pitié de moi, Selon ta coutume à l’égard de ceux qui aiment ton nom!
133Affermis mes pas dans ta parole, Et ne laisse aucune iniquité dominer sur moi!
134Délivre-moi de l’oppression des hommes, Afin que je garde tes ordonnances!
135Fais luire ta face sur ton serviteur, Et enseigne-moi tes statuts!
136Mes yeux répandent des torrents d’eaux, Parce qu’on n’observe point ta loi.
137Tu es juste, ô Éternel! Et tes jugements sont équitables;
138Tu fondes tes préceptes sur la justice Et sur la plus grande fidélité.
139Mon zèle me consume, Parce que mes adversaires oublient tes paroles.
140Ta parole est entièrement éprouvée, Et ton serviteur l’aime.
141Je suis petit et méprisé; Je n’oublie point tes ordonnances.
142Ta justice est une justice éternelle, Et ta loi est la vérité.
143La détresse et l’angoisse m’atteignent: Tes commandements font mes délices.
144Tes préceptes sont éternellement justes: Donne-moi l’intelligence, pour que je vive!
145Je t’invoque de tout mon cœur: exauce-moi, Éternel, Afin que je garde tes statuts!
146Je t’invoque: sauve-moi, Afin que j’observe tes préceptes!
147Je devance l’aurore et je crie; J’espère en tes promesses.
148Je devance les veilles et j’ouvre les yeux, Pour méditer ta parole.
149Écoute ma voix selon ta bonté! Rends-moi la vie selon ton jugement!
150Ils s’approchent, ceux qui poursuivent le crime, Ils s’éloignent de la loi.
151Tu es proche, ô Éternel! Et tous tes commandements sont la vérité.
152Dès longtemps je sais par tes préceptes Que tu les as établis pour toujours.
153Vois ma misère, et délivre-moi! Car je n’oublie point ta loi.
154Défends ma cause, et rachète-moi; Rends-moi la vie selon ta promesse!
155Le salut est loin des méchants, Car ils ne recherchent pas tes statuts.
156Tes compassions sont grandes, ô Éternel! Rends-moi la vie selon tes jugements!
157Mes persécuteurs et mes adversaires sont nombreux; Je ne m’écarte point de tes préceptes,
158Je vois avec dégoût des traîtres Qui n’observent pas ta parole.
159Considère que j’aime tes ordonnances: Éternel, rends-moi la vie selon ta bonté!
160Le fondement de ta parole est la vérité, Et toutes les lois de ta justice sont éternelles.
161Des princes me persécutent sans cause; Mais mon cœur ne tremble qu’à tes paroles.
162Je me réjouis de ta parole, Comme celui qui trouve un grand butin.
163Je hais, je déteste le mensonge; J’aime ta loi.
164Sept fois le jour je te célèbre, A cause des lois de ta justice.
165Il y a beaucoup de paix pour ceux qui aiment ta loi, Et il ne leur arrive aucun malheur.
166J’espère en ton salut, ô Éternel! Et je pratique tes commandements.
167Mon âme observe tes préceptes, Et je les aime beaucoup.
168Je garde tes ordonnances et tes préceptes, Car toutes mes voies sont devant toi.
169Que mon cri parvienne jusqu’à toi, ô Éternel! Donne-moi l’intelligence, selon ta promesse!
170Que ma supplication arrive jusqu’à toi! Délivre-moi, selon ta promesse!
171Que mes lèvres publient ta louange! Car tu m’enseignes tes statuts.
172Que ma langue chante ta parole! Car tous tes commandements sont justes.
173Que ta main me soit en aide! Car j’ai choisi tes ordonnances.
174Je soupire après ton salut, ô Éternel! Et ta loi fait mes délices.
175Que mon âme vive et qu’elle te loue! Et que tes jugements me soutiennent!
176Je suis errant comme une brebis perdue: cherche ton serviteur, Car je n’oublie point tes commandements.
Reina-Valera 1909
1ALEPH. BIENAVENTURADOS los perfectos de camino; los que andan en la ley de Jehová.
2Bienaventurados los que guardan sus testimonios, y con todo el corazón le buscan:
3Pues no hacen iniquidad los que andan en sus caminos.
4Tú encargaste que sean muy guardados tus mandamientos.
5¡Ojalá fuesen ordenados mis caminos á observar tus estatutos!
6Entonces no sería yo avergonzado, cuando atendiese á todos tus mandamientos.
7Te alabaré con rectitud de corazón, cuando aprendiere los juicios de tu justicia.
8Tus estatutos guardaré: no me dejes enteramente.
9BETH ¿Con qué limpiará el joven su camino? Con guardar tu palabra.
10Con todo mi corazón te he buscado: no me dejes divagar de tus mandamientos.
11En mi corazón he guardado tus dichos, para no pecar contra ti.
12Bendito tú, oh Jehová: enséñame tus estatutos.
13Con mis labios he contado todos los juicios de tu boca.
14Heme gozado en el camino de tus testimonios, como sobre toda riqueza.
15En tus mandamientos meditaré, consideraré tus caminos.
16Recrearéme en tus estatutos: no me olvidaré de tus palabras.
17GIMEL. Haz bien á tu siervo; que viva y guarde tu palabra.
18Abre mis ojos, y miraré las maravillas de tu ley.
19Advenedizo soy yo en la tierra: no encubras de mí tus mandamientos.
20Quebrantada está mi alma de desear tus juicios en todo tiempo.
21Destruiste á los soberbios malditos, que se desvían de tus mandamientos.
22Aparta de mí oprobio y menosprecio; porque tus testimonios he guardado.
23Príncipes también se sentaron y hablaron contra mí: mas tu siervo meditaba en tus estatutos.
24Pues tus testimonios son mis deleites, y mis consejeros.
25DALETH. Pegóse al polvo mi alma: vivifícame según tu palabra.
26Mis caminos te conté, y me has respondido: enséñame tus estatutos.
27Hazme entender el camino de tus mandamientos, y hablaré de tus maravillas.
28Deshácese mi alma de ansiedad: corrobórame según tu palabra.
29Aparta de mí camino de mentira; y hazme la gracia de tu ley.
30Escogí el camino de la verdad; he puesto tus juicios delante de mí.
31Allegádome he á tus testimonios; oh Jehová, no me avergüences.
32Por el camino de tus mandamientos correré, cuando ensanchares mi corazón.
33HE. Enséñame, oh Jehová, el camino de tus estatutos, y guardarélo hasta el fin.
34Dame entendimiento, y guardaré tu ley; y la observaré de todo corazón.
35Guíame por la senda de tus mandamientos; porque en ella tengo mi voluntad.
36Inclina mi corazón á tus testimonios, y no á la avaricia.
37Aparta mis ojos, que no vean la vanidad; avívame en tu camino.
38Confirma tu palabra á tu siervo, que te teme.
39Quita de mí el oprobio que he temido: porque buenos son tus juicios.
40He aquí yo he codiciado tus mandamientos: vivifícame en tu justicia.
41VAU. Y venga á mí tu misericordia, oh Jehová; tu salud, conforme á tu dicho.
42Y daré por respuesta á mi avergonzador, que en tu palabra he confiado.
43Y no quites de mi boca en ningún tiempo la palabra de verdad; porque á tu juicio espero.
44Y guardaré tu ley siempre, por siglo de siglo.
45Y andaré en anchura, porque busqué tus mandamientos.
46Y hablaré de tus testimonios delante de los reyes, y no me avergonzaré.
47Y deleitaréme en tus mandamientos, que he amado.
48Alzaré asimismo mis manos á tus mandamientos, que amé; y meditaré en tus estatutos.
49ZAIN. Acuérdate de la palabra dada á tu siervo, en la cual me has hecho esperar.
50Esta es mi consuelo en mi aflicción: porque tu dicho me ha vivificado.
51Los soberbios se burlaron mucho de mí: mas no me he apartado de tu ley.
52Acordéme, oh Jehová, de tus juicios antiguos, y consoléme.
53Horror se apoderó de mí, á causa de los impíos que dejan tu ley.
54Cánticos me fueron tus estatutos en la mansión de mis peregrinaciones.
55Acordéme en la noche de tu nombre, oh Jehová, y guardé tu ley.
56Esto tuve, porque guardaba tus mandamientos.
57CHETH. Mi porción, oh Jehová, dije, será guardar tus palabras.
58Tu presencia supliqué de todo corazón: ten misericordia de mí según tu palabra.
59Consideré mis caminos, y torné mis pies á tus testimonios.
60Apresuréme, y no me retardé en guardar tus mandamientos.
61Compañías de impíos me han robado: mas no me he olvidado de tu ley.
62A media noche me levantaba á alabarte sobre los juicios de tu justicia.
63Compañero soy yo de todos los que te temieren y guardaren tus mandamientos.
64De tu misericordia, oh Jehová, está llena la tierra: enséñame tus estatutos.
65TETH. Bien has hecho con tu siervo, oh Jehová, conforme á tu palabra.
66Enséñame bondad de sentido y sabiduría; porque tus mandamientos he creído.
67Antes que fuera yo humillado, descarriado andaba; mas ahora guardo tu palabra.
68Bueno eres tú, y bienhechor: enséñame tus estatutos.
69Contra mí forjaron mentira los soberbios: mas yo guardaré de todo corazón tus mandamientos.
70Engrasóse el corazón de ellos como sebo; mas yo en tu ley me he deleitado.
71Bueno me es haber sido humillado, para que aprenda tus estatutos.
72Mejor me es la ley de tu boca, que millares de oro y plata.
73JOD. Tus manos me hicieron y me formaron: hazme entender, y aprenderé tus mandamientos.
74Los que te temen, me verán, y se alegrarán; porque en tu palabra he esperado.
75Conozco, oh Jehová, que tus juicios son justicia, y que conforme á tu fidelidad me afligiste.
76Sea ahora tu misericordia para consolarme, conforme á lo que has dicho á tu siervo.
77Vengan á mí tus misericordias, y viva; porque tu ley es mi deleite.
78Sean avergonzados los soberbios, porque sin causa me han calumniado: yo empero, meditaré en tus mandamientos.
79Tórnense á mí los que te temen y conocen tus testimonios.
80Sea mi corazón íntegro en tus estatutos; porque no sea yo avergonzado.
81CAPH. Desfallece mi alma por tu salud, esperando en tu palabra.
82Desfallecieron mis ojos por tu palabra, diciendo: ¿Cuándo me consolarás?
83Porque estoy como el odre al humo; mas no he olvidado tus estatutos.
84¿Cuántos son los días de tu siervo? ¿cuándo harás juicio contra los que me persiguen?
85Los soberbios me han cavado hoyos; mas no obran según tu ley.
86Todos tus mandamientos son verdad: sin causa me persiguen; ayúdame.
87Casi me han echado por tierra: mas yo no he dejado tus mandamientos.
88Vivifícame conforme á tu misericordia; y guardaré los testimonios de tu boca.
89LAMED. Para siempre, oh Jehová, permanece tu palabra en los cielos.
90Por generación y generación es tu verdad: tú afirmaste la tierra, y persevera.
91Por tu ordenación perseveran hasta hoy las cosas criadas; porque todas ellas te sirven.
92Si tu ley no hubiese sido mis delicias, ya en mi aflicción hubiera perecido.
93Nunca jamás me olvidaré de tus mandamientos; porque con ellos me has vivificado.
94Tuyo soy yo, guárdame; porque he buscado tus mandamientos.
95Los impíos me han aguardado para destruirme: mas yo entenderé en tus testimonios.
96A toda perfección he visto fin: ancho sobremanera es tu mandamiento.
97MEM ¡Cuánto amo yo tu ley! todo el día es ella mi meditación.
98Me has hecho más sabio que mis enemigos con tus mandamientos; porque me son eternos.
99Más que todos mis enseñadores he entendido: porque tus testimonios son mi meditación.
100Más que los viejos he entendido, porque he guardado tus mandamientos.
101De todo mal camino contuve mis pies, para guardar tu palabra.
102No me aparté de tus juicios; porque tú me enseñaste.
103¡Cuán dulces son á mi paladar tus palabras! más que la miel á mi boca.
104De tus mandamientos he adquirido inteligencia: por tanto he aborrecido todo camino de mentira.
105NUN. Lámpara es á mis pies tu palabra, y lumbrera á mi camino.
106Juré y ratifiqué el guardar los juicios de tu justicia.
107Afligido estoy en gran manera: oh Jehová, vivifícame conforme á tu palabra.
108Ruégote, oh Jehová, te sean agradables los sacrificios voluntarios de mi boca; y enséñame tus juicios.
109De continuo está mi alma en mi mano: mas no me he olvidado de tu ley.
110Pusiéronme lazo los impíos: empero yo no me desvié de tus mandamientos.
111Por heredad he tomado tus testimonios para siempre; porque son el gozo de mi corazón.
112Mi corazón incliné á poner por obra tus estatutos de continuo, hasta el fin.
113SAMECH. Los pensamientos vanos aborrezco; mas amo tu ley.
114Mi escondedero y mi escudo eres tú: en tu palabra he esperado.
115Apartaos de mí, malignos; pues yo guardaré los mandamientos de mi Dios.
116Susténtame conforme á tu palabra, y viviré: y no me avergüences de mi esperanza.
117Sostenme, y seré salvo; y deleitaréme siempre en tus estatutos.
118Hollaste á todos los que se desvían de tus estatutos: porque mentira es su engaño.
119Como escorias hiciste consumir á todos los impíos de la tierra: por tanto yo he amado tus testimonios.
120Mi carne se ha extremecido por temor de ti; y de tus juicios tengo miedo.
121AIN. Juicio y justicia he hecho; no me dejes á mis opresores.
122Responde por tu siervo para bien: no me hagan violencia los soberbios.
123Mis ojos desfallecieron por tu salud, y por el dicho de tu justicia.
124Haz con tu siervo según tu misericordia, y enséñame tus estatutos.
125Tu siervo soy yo, dame entendimiento; para que sepa tus testimonios.
126Tiempo es de hacer, oh Jehová; disipado han tu ley.
127Por eso he amado tus mandamientos más que el oro, y más que oro muy puro.
128Por eso todos los mandamientos de todas las cosas estimé rectos: aborrecí todo camino de mentira.
129PE. Maravillosos son tus testimonios: por tanto los ha guardado mi alma.
130El principio de tus palabras alumbra; hace entender á los simples.
131Mi boca abrí y suspiré; porque deseaba tus mandamientos.
132Mírame, y ten misericordia de mí, como acostumbras con los que aman tu nombre.
133Ordena mis pasos con tu palabra; y ninguna iniquidad se enseñoree de mí.
134Redímeme de la violencia de los hombres; y guardaré tus mandamientos.
135Haz que tu rostro resplandezca sobre tu siervo; y enséñame tus estatutos.
136Ríos de agua descendieron de mis ojos, porque no guardaban tu ley.
137TZADDI. Justo eres tú, oh Jehová, y rectos tus juicios.
138Tus testimonios, que has recomendado, son rectos y muy fieles.
139Mi celo me ha consumido; porque mis enemigos se olvidaron de tus palabras.
140Sumamente acendrada es tu palabra; y la ama tu siervo.
141Pequeño soy yo y desechado; mas no me he olvidado de tus mandamientos.
142Tu justicia es justicia eterna, y tu ley la verdad.
143Aflicción y angustia me hallaron: mas tus mandamientos fueron mis deleites.
144Justicia eterna son tus testimonios; dame entendimiento, y viviré.
145COPH. Clamé con todo mi corazón; respóndeme, Jehová, y guardaré tus estatutos.
146A ti clamé; sálvame, y guardaré tus testimonios.
147Anticipéme al alba, y clamé: esperé en tu palabra.
148Previnieron mis ojos las vigilias de la noche, para meditar en tus dichos.
149Oye mi voz conforme á tu misericordia; oh Jehová, vivifícame conforme á tu juicio.
150Acercáronse á la maldad los que me persiguen; alejáronse de tu ley.
151Cercano estás tú, oh Jehová; y todos tus mandamientos son verdad.
152Ya ha mucho que he entendido de tus mandamientos, que para siempre los fundaste.
153RESH. Mira mi aflicción, y líbrame; porque de tu ley no me he olvidado.
154Aboga mi causa, y redímeme: vivifícame con tu dicho.
155Lejos está de los impíos la salud; porque no buscan tus estatutos.
156Muchas son tus misericordias, oh Jehová: vivifícame conforme á tus juicios.
157Muchos son mis perseguidores y mis enemigos; mas de tus testimonios no me he apartado.
158Veía á los prevaricadores, y carcomíame; porque no guardaban tus palabras.
159Mira, oh Jehová, que amo tus mandamientos: vivifícame conforme á tu misericordia.
160El principio de tu palabra es verdad; y eterno es todo juicio de tu justicia.
161SIN. Príncipes me han perseguido sin causa; mas mi corazón tuvo temor de tus palabras.
162Gózome yo en tu palabra, como el que halla muchos despojos.
163La mentira aborrezco y abomino: tu ley amo.
164Siete veces al día te alabo sobre los juicios de tu justicia.
165Mucha paz tienen los que aman tu ley; y no hay para ellos tropiezo.
166Tu salud he esperado, oh Jehová; y tus mandamientos he puesto por obra.
167Mi alma ha guardado tus testimonios, y helos amado en gran manera.
168Guardado he tus mandamientos y tus testimonios; porque todos mis caminos están delante de ti.
169TAU. Acérquese mi clamor delante de ti, oh Jehová: dame entendimiento conforme á tu palabra.
170Venga mi oración delante de ti: líbrame conforme á tu dicho.
171Mis labios rebosarán alabanza, cuando me enseñares tus estatutos.
172Hablará mi lengua tus dichos; porque todos tus mandamientos son justicia.
173Sea tu mano en mi socorro; porque tus mandamientos he escogido.
174Deseado he tu salud, oh Jehová; y tu ley es mi delicia.
175Viva mi alma y alábete; y tus juicios me ayuden.
176Yo anduve errante como oveja extraviada; busca á tu siervo; porque no me he olvidado de tus mandamientos.

175Let my soul live, that I may praise you. Let your ordinances help me.
176I have gone astray like a lost sheep. Seek your servant, for I don’t forget your commandments.
