114You are my refuge and shield; *
my hope is in your word.

115Away from me, you wicked! *
I will keep the commandments of my God.

116Sustain me according to your promise, that I may live, *
and let me not be disappointed in my hope.

117Hold me up, and I shall be safe, *
and my delight shall be ever in your statutes.

118You spurn all who stray from your statutes; *
their deceitfulness is in vain.

119In your sight all the wicked of the earth are but dross; *
therefore I love your decrees.

120My flesh trembles with dread of you; *
I am afraid of your judgments.

AyinFeci judicium

121I have done what is just and right; *
do not deliver me to my oppressors.

122Be surety for your servant’s good; *
let not the proud oppress me.

123My eyes have failed from watching for your salvation *
and for your righteous promise.

124Deal with your servant according to your loving‑kindness *
and teach me your statutes.

125I am your servant; grant me understanding, *
that I may know your decrees.

126It is time for you to act, O Lord, *
for they have broken your law.

Psalm 119:121773
