Psalms 119:33-56

Teach me, Lord, the meaning  of your statutes, and I will always keep them.  , Help me understand your instruction,  and I will obey it and follow it with all my heart.  Help me stay on the path of your commands,  for I take pleasure in it.  Turn my heart to your decrees  and not to dishonest profit.  Turn my eyes from looking at what is worthless;  give me life in your ways.  , Confirm what you said to your servant,  for it produces reverence for you. Turn away the disgrace I dread;  indeed, your judgments are good. How I long for your precepts!  Give me life through your righteousness. Let your faithful love come to me,  Lord,  your salvation, as you promised.  Then I can answer the one who taunts me,  for I trust in your word. Never take the word of truth from my mouth, for I hope in your judgments.  I will always obey your instruction, forever and ever.  I will walk freely in an open place  because I study your precepts.  I will speak of your decrees before kings and not be ashamed.  I delight in your commands, which I love.  I will lift up my hands  to your commands, which I love, and will meditate on your statutes.  Remember your word to your servant; you have given me hope through it. This is my comfort in my affliction:  Your promise has given me life. The arrogant constantly ridicule me, but I do not turn away from your instruction.  Lord, I remember your judgments from long ago and find comfort. Fury seizes me  because of the wicked who reject your instruction.  Your statutes are the theme of my song during my earthly life.  Lord, I remember your name  in the night,  and I obey your instruction. This is my practice: I obey your precepts.
