New Testament

Psalms 119:36-45 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

36. Give me the desire to follow your rules, not the desire to get rich.

37. Don’t let me look at worthless things. Help me live your way.

38. Do what you promised me, your servant, so that people will respect you.

39. Take away the shame I fear. Your laws are good.

40. See how much I want to obey your instructions! Be good to me, and let me live.

41. Lord, show me your faithful love. Save me, as you promised.

42. Then I will have an answer for those who make fun of me for trusting what you say.

43. Let me always say what is true. I depend on your judgment to be fair.

44. I will follow your teachings forever and ever.

45. So I will live in freedom, because I do my best to know your instructions.
