119:1  ALEF Ashrei are the blameless ones in the derech, who walk in the torat Hashem.
119:2  Ashrei are they that keep His edot (testimonies), and that seek Him with kol lev.
119:3  They also do no iniquity; they walk in His drakhim.
119:4  Thou hast commanded us to be diligently shomer over Thy pikkudim (precepts).
119:5  O that my drakhim were directed to be shomer over Thy chukkot (statutes)!
119:6  Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all Thy mitzvot.
119:7  I will praise Thee with yosher levav (uprightness of heart) when I shall have learned Thy righteous mishpatim (ordinances).
119:8  I will keep Thy chukkot; O forsake me not utterly. BEIS
119:9  How shall a na’ar cleanse his way? By being shomer thereto according to Thy Davar (Word).
119:10  With my kol lev have I sought Thee; O let me not wander from Thy mitzvot.
119:11  Thy word have I hid in my lev, lema’an (so that) I might not sin against Thee.
119:12  Baruch atah, Adonoi; teach me Thy chukkot.
119:13  With my sfatayim (lips) have I declared all the mishpatim of Thy mouth.
119:14  I have rejoiced in the derech of Thy edot (testimonies), as much as in all riches.
119:15  I will meditate in Thy pikkudim, and consider Thy orkhot (paths).
119:16  I will delight myself in Thy chukkot; I will not forget Thy Davar. GIMEL

119:20  My nefesh is shattered with ta’avah for Thy mishpatim at all times.
119:21  Thou hast rebuked the zedim (arrogant ones) that are arurim (cursed ones), which do wander from Thy mitzvot.
119:22  Remove from me cherpah (reproach) and contempt; for I have kept Thy edot (testimonies).
119:23  Though sarim (princes) also sit and speak slander against me, yet Thy eved meditates on Thy chukkot.
119:24  Thy edot (testimonies) also are my delight and anshei atzati (my counsellors). DALET

119:30  I have chosen the derech emunah; thy mishpatim have I accounted worthy.
119:31  I have deveykus with Thy edot (testimonies); Hashem, let me not be ashamed.
119:32  I will run the derech of Thy mitzvot, for Thou shalt set my lev free. HEH

119:41  Let Thy chasadim come also unto me, Hashem, even Thy Teshu’ah (salvation), according to Thy word.
119:42  So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me; for I trust in Thy Davar.
119:43  And take not the devar emes utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in Thy mishpatim.

119:57  Thou art my chelek, Hashem; I have said I would be shomer over Thy words.
119:58  I sought Thy Face with my kol lev; be gracious unto me according to Thy word.
119:59  I thought on my drakhim, and turned my feet unto Thy edot (testimonies).
119:60  I made haste, and delayed not to be shomer over Thy mitzvot.
119:61  The ropes of the resha’im have bound me; but I have not forgotten Thy torah.
119:62  At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto Thee because of Thy righteous mishpatim.
119:63  I am a chaver of all them that fear Thee, and of them that are shomer over Thy pikkudim.
119:64  Ha’aretz, Hashem, is full of Thy chesed; teach me Thy chukkot. TET
119:65  Thou hast dealt well with Thy eved, Hashem, according unto Thy word.
119:66  Teach me good judgment and da’as; for I have believed in Thy mitzvot.
119:67  Before I was afflicted I went astray; but now have I been shomer over Thy word.
119:68  Thou art tov, and doest tov; teach me Thy chukkot.
119:69  The zedim (arrogant ones) have forged a sheker against me; but I will keep Thy pikkudim with my kol lev.

119:71  It is tov for me that I have been afflicted l’ma’an (in order that) I might learn Thy chukkot.
119:72  The torah of Thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of zahav and kesef. ' YOD
119:73  Thy hands have made me and established me: give me understanding, that I may learn Thy mitzvot.

119:80  Let my lev be tamim (blameless, complete) in Thy chukkot; that I be not ashamed. Kaf
119:81  My nefesh fainteth for Thy salvation: but I hope in Thy davar.
119:82  Mine eyes fail for Thy word saying, Mosai (when) wilt Thou comfort me?
119:83  For I am become like a wineskin in the smoke; yet do I not forget Thy chukkot.
119:84  How many are the days of Thy eved? Mosai (when) wilt Thou execute mishpat on them that persecute me?
119:85  The zedim (arrogant ones) have dug pits for me, which are not in accordance with Thy torah.
119:86  All Thy mitzvot are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help Thou me.
119:87  They had almost consumed me ba’aretz; but I forsook not Thy pikkudim.
119:88  Revive me after Thy chesed; so shall I be shomer over the edut of Thy mouth. Lamed
119:89  Forever, Hashem, Thy Davar is settled and stands firm in Shomayim.
119:90  Thy emunah (faithfulness) is to all generations: Thou hast established eretz, and it stands enduring.

119:116  Uphold me according unto Thy imrah, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed from my hope.
119:117  Hold Thou me up, and I shall be safe: and I will have respect unto Thy chukkot continually.
119:118  Thou hast rejected all them that err from Thy chukkot: for their deceitfulness is sheker (falsehood).
119:119  Thou puttest away all resha’im of eretz like dross; therefore I love Thy edot.
119:120  My basar trembleth for fear of Thee; and I am afraid of Thy mishpatim. AYIN
119:121  I have done mishpat and tzedek; leave me not to mine oppressors.
119:122  Be surety for Thy eved for good; let not the zedim (arrogant ones) oppress me.
119:123  Mine eyes fail for Thy Yeshuah (salvation), and for the word of Thy tzedakah.
119:124  Deal with Thy eved according unto Thy chesed, and teach me Thy chukkot.
119:125  I am Thy eved; give me understanding, that I may know Thy edot (testimonies).
119:126  It is time for Thee, Hashem, to work; for they have made void Thy torah.
119:127  Therefore I love Thy mitzvot above zahav; yes, above fine gold.
119:128  Therefore I esteem right all Thy pikkudim concerning all things; and I hate every orakh sheker. PEH
119:129  Thy edot (testimonies) are wonderful; therefore doth my nefesh keep them.
119:130  The petach (entrance, doorway) of Thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple.
119:131  I opened my mouth, and panted; for I longed for Thy mitzvot.
119:132  Look Thou upon me, and be merciful unto me, as Thy manner is unto those that love Shimcha.
119:133  Order my footsteps in Thy imrah; and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
119:134  Redeem me from the oppression of adam; so will I keep Thy pikkudim.
