The King James Version Bible

Psalms 119:155-170

  1. Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.

  2. Great are thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy judgments.

  3. Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

  4. I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.

  5. Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy lovingkindness.

  6. Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

  7. Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

  8. I rejoice at thy word, as one that findeth great spoil.

  9. I hate and abhor lying: but thy law do I love.

  10. Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.

  11. Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.

  12. LORD, I have hoped for thy salvation, and done thy commandments.

  13. My soul hath kept thy testimonies; and I love them exceedingly.

  14. I have kept thy precepts and thy testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.

  15. Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word.

  16. Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.
