"Smile on your servant! Teach me your statutes!"
— Psalms 119:135, NET Bible®
Turn toward me and extend mercy to me, as you typically do to your loyal followers.
Direct my steps by your word! Do not let any sin dominate me!
Deliver me from oppressive men, so that I can keep your precepts.
Smile on your servant! Teach me your statutes!
Tears stream down from my eyes, because people do not keep your law.
צ(Tsade) You are just, O LORD, and your judgments are fair.
The rules you impose are just, and absolutely reliable.
