129 Thy testimonies are wonderful;
    therefore my soul keeps them.
130 The unfolding of thy words gives light;
    it imparts understanding to the simple.
131 With open mouth I pant,
    because I long for thy commandments.
132 Turn to me and be gracious to me,
    as is thy wont toward those who love thy name.
133 Keep steady my steps according to thy promise,
    and let no iniquity get dominion over me.
134 Redeem me from man’s oppression,
    that I may keep thy precepts.
135 Make thy face shine upon thy servant,
    and teach me thy statutes.
136 My eyes shed streams of tears,
    because men do not keep thy law.
