"The rules you impose are just, and absolutely reliable."
— Psalms 119:138, NET Bible®
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.
My zeal consumes me, for my enemies forget your instructions.
Your word is absolutely pure, and your servant loves it!
I am insignificant and despised, yet I do not forget your precepts.
