Psalms 119:92-111 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

92. If I had not found joy in your teachings, my suffering would have destroyed me.

93. I will never forget your commands, because through them you gave me new life.

94. I am yours, so save me! I have done my best to know your instructions.

95. The wicked tried to destroy me, but your rules made me wise.

96. Everything has its limits, except your commands.

97. Oh, how I love your teachings! I talk about them all the time.

98. Your commands are always with me, and they make me wiser than my enemies.

99. I am wiser than all my teachers, because I study your rules.

100. I understand more than those who are older, because I obey your instructions.

101. I have avoided every path that leads to evil so that I could obey your word.

102. You are my teacher, so I will always do whatever you decide.

103. Your words are so sweet to me, like the taste of honey!

104. I gain understanding from your instructions, so I hate anything that leads people the wrong way.

105. Your word is like a lamp that guides my steps, a light that shows the path I should take.

106. Your laws are good and fair. I have promised to obey them, and I will keep my promise.

107. Lord, I have suffered for a long time. Say the word, and I will live again!

108. Lord, accept the praise I want to give you, and teach me your laws.

109. My life is always in danger, but I have not forgotten your teachings.

110. The wicked try to trap me, but I have not disobeyed your instructions.

111. The rules you have given me to follow will be mine forever. They give me great joy.
