Psalm 119:121-128 Part 4

                    AYIN 
Don't leave me to the mercy of my enemies,
    for I have done what is just and right.
Please guarantee a blessing for me.
    Don't let the arrogant oppress me!
My eyes strain to see your rescue,
    to see the truth of your promise fulfilled.
I am your servant; deal with me in unfailing love,
    and teach me your decrees.
Give discernment to me, your servant;
    then I will understand your laws.
LORD, it is time for you to act,
    for these evil people have violated your instructions.
Truly, I love your commands
    more than gold, even the finest gold.
Each of your commandments is right.
    That is why I hate every false way. 
 
Truly, I love your commands more than gold, even the finest gold.
Psalm 19:9-10 
Reverence for the LORD is pure,
    lasting forever.
The laws of the LORD are true;
    each one is fair.
They are more desirable than gold,
    even the finest gold.
They are sweeter than honey,
    even honey dripping from the comb.  (see all Psalm 19)
Psalm 119:47  
How I delight in your commands!
    How I love them!  (see Psalm 119:41-48)
 
Each of your commandments is right. That is why I hate every false way.  
Psalm 31:6  
I hate those who worship worthless idols.
    I trust in the LORD.  (see all Psalm 31)
Psalm 119:104  
Your commandments give me understanding;
    no wonder I hate every false way of life.  (see Psalm 119:97-104)
Psalm 119:163  
I hate and abhor all falsehood,
    but I love your instructions.  (se Psalm 119:161-168)
Proverbs 13:5  
The godly hate lies;
    the wicked cause shame and disgrace.  (see all Proverbs 13)
