Psalms 119:161-171 Modern English Version (MEV)

161. Princes have persecuted me without a cause,but my heart stands in awe of Your words.

162. I rejoice at Your word,as one who finds great plunder.

163. I hate and abhor lying,but I love Your law.

164. Seven times a day I praise You,because of Your righteous judgments.

165. Those who love Your law have great peace,and nothing shall cause them to stumble.

166. Lord, I have hoped for Your deliverance,and I carry out Your commandments.

167. My soul has kept Your testimonies,and I love them greatly.

168. I have kept Your precepts and Your testimonies,for all my ways are before You.

169. Let my cry come near before You, O Lord;give me understanding according to Your word.

170. Let my supplication come before You;deliver me according to Your word.

171. My lips shall declare praise,for You have taught me Your statutes.
