Psalms 119:129-139

129 Your teachings are wonderful; I obey them with all my heart.
130 The explanation of your teachings gives light and brings wisdom to the ignorant.
131 In my desire for your commands I pant with open mouth.
132 Turn to me and have mercy on me as you do on all those who love you.
133 As you have promised, keep me from falling; don't let me be overcome by evil.
134 Save me from those who oppress me, so that I may obey your commands.
135 Bless me with your presence and teach me your laws.
136 My tears pour down like a river, because people do not obey your law.
137 You are righteous, Lord, and your laws are just.
138 The rules that you have given are completely fair and right.
139 My anger burns in me like a fire, because my enemies disregard your commands.
