113 I hate the [a]double-minded,
But I love Your law.
114 (A)You are my hiding place and my shield;
I hope in Your word.
115 (B)Depart from me, you evildoers,
For I will keep the commandments of my God!
116 Uphold me according to Your word, that I may live;
And do not let me (C)be ashamed of my hope.
117 [b]Hold me up, and I shall be safe,
And I shall observe Your statutes continually.
118 You reject all those who stray from Your statutes,
For their deceit is falsehood.
119 You [c]put away all the wicked of the earth (D)like [d]dross;
Therefore I love Your testimonies.
120 (E)My flesh trembles for fear of You,
And I am afraid of Your judgments.

113 [Samech.] Doubting ones I have hated, And Thy law I have loved.

114 My hiding place and my shield [art] Thou, For Thy word I have hoped.

115 Turn aside from me, ye evil-doers, And I keep the commands of my God.

116 Sustain me according to Thy saying, And I live, and Thou puttest me not to shame Because of my hope.

117 Support Thou me, and I am saved, And I look on Thy statutes continually.

118 Thou hast trodden down All going astray from Thy statutes, For falsehood [is] their deceit.

119 Dross! Thou hast caused to cease All the wicked of the earth; Therefore I have loved Thy testimonies.

120 Trembled from Thy fear hath my flesh, And from Thy judgments I have been afraid!
