Psalm 119. XIX, XX, XXI, XXII.

XIX. Clamavi in toto corde meo.

145. I call with my whole heart; *
     answer me, O Lord, that I may keep your statutes.
146. I call to you; oh, that you would save me! *
     I will keep your decrees.
147. Early in the morning I cry out to you, *
     for in your word is my trust.
148. My eyes are open in the night watches, *
     that I may meditate upon your promise.
149. Hear my voice, O Lord, according to your lovingkindness; *
     according to your judgments, give me life.
150. They draw near who in malice persecute me; *
     they are very far from your law.
151. You, O Lord, are near at hand, *
     and all your commandments are true.
152. Long have I known from your decrees *
     that you have established them for ever.

vXX. Resh Vide humilitatem

153. Behold my affliction and deliver me, *
     for I do not forget your law.
154. Plead my cause and redeem me; *
     according to your promise, give me life.
155. Deliverance is far from the wicked, *
     for they do not study your statutes.
156. Great is your compassion, O Lord; *
     preserve my life, according to your judgments.
157. There are many who persecute and oppress me, *
     yet I have not swerved from your decrees.
158. I look with loathing at the faithless, *
     for they have not kept your word.
159. See how I love your commandments! *
     O Lord, in your mercy, preserve me.
160. The heart of your word is truth; *
     all your righteous judgments endure for evermore.

XXI. Shin Principes persecuti sunt

161. Rulers have persecuted me without a cause, *
     but my heart stands in awe of your word.
162. I am as glad because of your promise *
     as one who finds great spoils.
163. As for lies, I hate and abhor them, *
     but your law is my love.
164. Seven times a day do I praise you, *
     because of your righteous judgments.
165. Great peace have they who love your law; *
     for them there is no stumbling block.
166. I have hoped for your salvation, O Lord, *
     and I have fulfilled your commandments.
167. I have kept your decrees *
     and I have loved them deeply.
168. I have kept your commandments and decrees, *
     for all my ways are before you.

XXII. Taw Appropinquet deprecatio

169. Let my cry come before you, O Lord; *
     give me understanding, according to your word.
170. Let my supplication come before you; *
     deliver me, according to your promise.
171. My lips shall pour forth your praise, *
     when you teach me your statutes.
172. My tongue shall sing of your promise, *
     for all your commandments are righteous.
173. Let your hand be ready to help me, *
     for I have chosen your commandments.
174. I long for your salvation, O Lord, *
     and your law is my delight.
175. Let me live, and I will praise you, *
     and let your judgments help me.
176. I have gone astray like a sheep that is lost; *
     search for your servant, for I do not forget your commandments.
