Psalm 119:137-144

Your Word Is a Lamp to My Feet

Tsadhe

¹³⁷
_h Righteous are you, O Lord,
and right are your rules.
¹³⁸ You have appointed your testimonies in _i righteousness
and in all _j faithfulness.
¹³⁹ My _k zeal consumes me,
because my foes forget your words.
¹⁴⁰ Your promise is well _l tried,
and your servant _m loves it.
¹⁴¹ I am small and despised,
yet I do not _n forget your precepts.
¹⁴² Your righteousness is righteous forever,
and your law is _o true.
¹⁴³ Trouble and anguish have found me out,
but your commandments are my _p delight.
¹⁴⁴ Your testimonies are righteous forever;
_q give me understanding that I may _r live.
