Psalms 119:125-138 Common English Bible (CEB)

125. I’m your servant!Help me understand so I can know your laws.

126. It is time for the Lord to do something!Your Instruction has been broken.

127. But I love your commandmentsmore than gold, even more than pure gold.

128. That’s why I walk straight by every single one of your precepts.That’s why I hate every false path.

129. Your laws are wonderful!That’s why I guard them.

130. Access to your words gives light,giving simple folk understanding.

131. I open my mouth up wide, panting,because I long for your commandments.

132. Come back to me and have mercy on me;that’s only right for those who love your name.

133. Keep my steps steady by your word;don’t let any sin rule me.

134. Redeem me from the people who oppress meso I can keep your precepts.

135. Shine your face on your servant,and teach me your statutes.

136. Rivers of tears stream from my eyesbecause your Instruction isn’t being kept.

137. Lord, you are righteous,and your rules are right.

138. The laws you commanded are righteous,completely trustworthy.
