Psalm 119:118
Verse 118 of 176. The 119th of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.
114You are my hiding place and my shield. I hope in your word.
115Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may keep the commandments of my God.
116Uphold me according to your word, that I may live. Let me not be ashamed of my hope.
117Hold me up, and I will be safe, and will have respect for your statutes continually.
118You reject all those who stray from your statutes, for their deceit is in vain.
119You put away all the wicked of the earth like dross. Therefore I love your testimonies.
120My flesh trembles for fear of you. I am afraid of your judgments. AYIN
121I have done what is just and righteous. Don’t leave me to my oppressors.
122Ensure your servant’s well-being. Don’t let the proud oppress me.
