Psalms 119:129-136

129Your laws are wonderful. No wonder I obey them!

130The teaching of your word gives light, so even the simple can understand.

131I pant with expectation, longing for your commands.

132Come and show me your mercy, as you do for all who love your name.

133Guide my steps by your word, so I will not be overcome by evil.

134Ransom me from the oppression of evil people; then I can obey your commandments.

135Look upon me with love; teach me your decrees.

136Rivers of tears gush from my eyes because people disobey your instructions.
