Psalms 119:30-46
English Standard Version
Chapter 119
30I have chosen the way of faithfulness; I set your rules before me. 31I cling to your testimonies, O Lord; let me not be put to shame! 32I will run in the way of your commandments when you enlarge my heart!
33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes; and I will keep it to the end.
34 Give me understanding, that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart.
35 Lead me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it.
36 Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to selfish gain!
37 Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.
38 Confirm to your servant your promise, that you may be feared.
39Turn away the reproach that I dread, for your rules are good.
40Behold, I long for your precepts; in your righteousness give me life!
41Let your steadfast love come to me, O Lord, your salvation according to your promise;
42then shall I have an answer for him who taunts me, for I trust in your word.
43And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth, for my hope is in your rules.
44I will keep your law continually, forever and ever,
45and I shall walk in a wide place, for I have sought your precepts.
46I will also speak of your testimonies before kings and shall not be put to shame,
