我就得了安慰。
53 因为恶人离弃你的律法，
我就非常忿怒。
54 在我寄居的住所里，
你的律例成了我的诗歌。
55 耶和华啊！我在夜间记念你的名，
我要谨守你的律法。
56 我这样作，
是因为我遵守你的训词。
谨守 神的话不敢忘记
57 耶和华啊！你是我的业分，
我曾说我要谨守你的话。
58 我曾一心向你乞恩，
愿你照着你的应许恩待我。
59 我思想我所行的道路，
就转回脚步归向你的法度。
60 我赶快谨守你的命令，
不敢耽延。
61 恶人的绳索虽然捆绑我，
我却不忘记你的律法。
62 因你公义的典章，
我半夜起来称谢你。
63 凡是敬畏你，谨守你训词的，
我都与他们为友。
64 耶和华啊！你的慈爱遍满大地；
求你把你的律例教导我。
苦难使人学习 神律例
65 耶和华啊！你向来照着你的话，
善待你的仆人。
66 求你把聪明和知识指教我，
因为我信靠你的命令。
67 我受苦以先，犯了错误；
现在我谨守你的话。
68 你本是良善的，你所行的也是良善的；
求你把你的律例教导我。
69 傲慢人用谎言中伤我，
我却一心遵守你的训词。

我却喜欢你的律法。
71 我受苦是对我有益的，
为要使我学习你的律例。
72 你口中的律法对我有益，
胜过千千万万的金银。
仰望 神的话必得安慰
73 你的手造了我，建立了我；
求你使我有悟性，可以学习你的命令。
74 愿敬畏你的人看见我就欢喜，
因为我仰望你的话。

81 我渴望你的救恩以致心力衰竭，
但我仍仰望你的话。
82 我仰望你的应许以致眼睛昏花，
我说：“你甚么时候才安慰我呢？”
83 我虽然好象烟熏的皮袋，
我却没有忘记你的律例。
84 你仆人的日子还有多少？
你甚么时候才向那些逼迫我的人施行审判呢？
85 傲慢人为我掘了坑，
他们就是那些不按着你律法而行的人。
86 你的一切命令都是可信靠的；
他们以诡诈逼迫我，求你帮助我。
87 他们几乎把我从世上除灭了；
至于我，我却没有离弃你的训词。
88 求你照着你的慈爱使我存活，
我就必谨守你口中的法度。
神的话永远坚立长存
89 耶和华啊！你的话存到永远，
坚立在天上。
90 你的信实存到万代；
你坚立了地，地就长存。
91 天地照着你的安排存到今日，
因为万有都是你的仆役。
92 如果我不是喜欢你的律法，
就早已在苦难中灭亡了。
93 我永远不会忘记你的训词，
因为你用这些训词使我存活。
94 我是属于你的，求你拯救我，
因为我寻求你的训词。

我却思考你的法度。

只有你的命令是广阔无边的。
神训词使人明白事理

103 你的话语在我的上膛多么甜美，
在我的口中比蜂蜜更甜。
104 我借着你的训词，得以明白事理；
因此，我恨恶一切虚谎的道。
立誓专心遵行 神律例
105 你的话是我脚前的灯，
是我路上的光。
106 我曾起誓，并且坚守誓言，
我必遵守你公义的典章。
107 我受苦极重；
耶和华啊！求你照着你的应许使我存活。
108 耶和华啊！求你悦纳我口中的甘心祭，
又把你的典章教导我。

我却没有偏离你的训词。
111 我以你的法度为我永远的产业；
因为它们是我心中的喜乐。
112 我专心遵行你的律例，
永不改变，遵行到底。
重视 神律例必蒙扶持
113 我恨恶心怀二意的人，
我却喜爱你的律法。
114 你是我的避难所，我的盾牌；
我仰望你的话。
115 作恶的人哪！你们离开我吧，
好让我遵守我 神的命令。
116 求你照着你的应许扶持我，使我存活；
不要使我因仰望你而蒙羞。
117 求你扶持我，我就必得救；
我必常常重视你的律例。
118 偏离你的律例的，你都把他们弃绝；
他们的诡诈是徒然的。
119 世上所有的恶人，你都把他们除灭，如同除去渣滓，
因此我喜爱你的法度。
120 我因惧怕你而战栗；
我畏惧你的审判。
秉行 神律法确保福乐
121 我曾秉公行义；
求你不要把我撇下，交给欺压我的人。
122 求你作你仆人的保证人，确保我的好处；
不要容傲慢人欺压我。
