ס Samekh.

¹¹³ I hate those who are double-minded, but I love and treasure Your law.

¹¹⁴ You are my hiding place and my shield; I wait for Your word.

¹¹⁵ Leave me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of my God [honoring and obeying them].

¹¹⁶ Uphold me according to Your word [of promise], so that I may live; And do not let me be ashamed of my hope [in Your great goodness].

¹¹⁷ Uphold me that I may be safe, that I may have regard for Your statutes continually.

¹¹⁸ You have turned Your back on all those who wander from Your statutes, for their deceitfulness is useless.

¹¹⁹ You have removed all the wicked of the earth like dross [for they have no value]; Therefore I love Your testimonies.

¹²⁰ My flesh trembles in [reverent] fear of You, and I am afraid and in awe of Your judgments.

ע Ayin.

¹²¹ I have done justice and righteousness; Do not leave me to those who oppress me.

¹²² Be the guarantee for Your servant for good [as Judah was the guarantee for Benjamin]; Do not let the arrogant oppress me.

¹²³ My eyes fail [with longing, watching] for [the fulfillment of] Your salvation, and for [the fulfillment of] Your righteous word.

¹²⁴ Deal with Your servant according to Your [gracious] lovingkindness, and teach me Your statutes.

¹²⁵ I am Your servant; give me understanding [the ability to learn and a teachable heart] that I may know Your testimonies.

¹²⁶ It is time for the Lord to act; They have broken Your law.

¹²⁷ Therefore I love Your commandments more than gold, yes, more than refined gold.

¹²⁸ Therefore I esteem as right all Your precepts concerning everything; I hate every false way.
