83 For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke.
I don’t forget your statutes.
84 How many are the days of your servant?
When will you execute judgment on those who persecute me?
85 The proud have dug pits for me,
contrary to your law.
86 All of your commandments are faithful.
They persecute me wrongfully.
Help me!
87 They had almost wiped me from the earth,
but I didn’t forsake your precepts.
88 Preserve my life according to your loving kindness,
so I will obey the statutes of your mouth.

yes, more than pure gold.
128 Therefore I consider all of your precepts to be right.
I hate every false way.

117 Tautokona ake ahau, kia ora ai ahau, a ka whai whakaaro tonu ahau ki au tikanga.
118 Kua whakahaweatia e koe te hunga katoa e kotiti ke ana i au tikanga; he horihori hoki to ratou tinihanga.
119 Ka whakakahoretia e koe te hunga kino katoa o te whenua, ano he para mata: koia ahau i aroha ai ki au whakaaturanga.
120 Wiri ana oku kikokiko i te wehi ki a koe; e mataku ana hoki ahau ki au whakaritenga. AINE
121 He whakawa tika, he tika taku mahi: kaua ahau e tukua ki oku kaitukino.
122 Ko koe hei tuara mo tau pononga mo te pai: kei tukinotia ahau e te hunga whakakake.
123 Matawaia ana oku kanohi i te meatanga ki tau whakaora, ki te kupu hoki o tau tika.
124 Kia rite ki tou aroha tau mahi ki tau pononga: whakaakona hoki ahau ki au tikanga.
125 He pononga ahau nau; homai he mahara ki ahau, kia matau ai ki au whakaaturanga.
126 Kua rite te wa hei mahinga ma Ihowa; kua whakakahoretia hoki e ratou tau ture.
127 Na reira i arohaina rawatia ai e ahau au whakahau i te koura, ae, i te tino koura.
128 Na reira tika tonu ki ahau au ako katoa mo nga mea katoa: kino iho ano ahau ki nga ara teka katoa. PE
129 He mea whakamiharo au whakaaturanga: i mau ai toku wairua ki reira.
130 Ko te whakapuakanga o au kupu he homai marama; na reira i homai he mahara ki nga kuware.
131 I hamama toku mangai, i kihakiha: he matenui noku ki au whakahau.
132 Tahuri mai ki ahau, tohungia hoki ahau: kia rite ki tau hanga ki te hunga e aroha ana ki tou ingoa.
133 Whakatikaia oku hikoinga ki runga i tau kupu: kaua hoki tetahi he e tukua hei rangatira moku.
134 Whakaorangia ahau i te tukino a te tangata: a ka puritia e ahau au ako.
135 Kia marama mai tou mata ki tau pononga: whakaakona hoki ahau ki au tikanga.
136 Heke noa nga awa wai o oku kanohi; mo ratou kahore i pupuri i tau ture. TARI
137 He tika koe, e Ihowa, he tika ano au whakaritenga.
138 He tika, he pono rawa au whakaaturanga i whakahaua mai e koe.
139 Ka ngaro ahau i toku ngakau whakapuke, mo au kupu ka wareware nei i oku hoariri.
140 Hore rawa he para o tau kupu: koia i arohaina ai e tau pononga.
141 He iti ahau, e whakahaweatia ana: heoi kahore ahau e wareware ki au ako.
142 He tika pumau tonu tou tika; he pono hoki tau ture.
143 Kua pa mai ki ahau te pouri me te mamae: ko au whakahau ia toku oranga ngakau.
144 Pumau tonu te tika o au whakaaturanga: homai he mahara ki ahau, a ka ora ahau. KOPO
145 I whakapaua toku ngakau ki te karanga; whakahokia mai he kupu ki ahau, e Ihowa; ka mau i ahau au tikanga.
146 I karanga ahau ki a koe: whakaorangia ahau, a ka puritia e ahau au whakaaturanga.
147 Kiano te ata i puao noa, kua karanga ahau: i tumanako ahau ki au kupu.
148 I hohoro oku kanohi i nga mataaratanga ki te whakaaroaro ki tau kupu.
149 Whakarongo ki toku reo, kia rite ki tou aroha: kia rite, e Ihowa, ki tau i whakarite ai tau whakahauora i ahau.
150 E whakatata mai ana te hunga e whai ana i te whanoke: kei tawhiti atu ratou i tau ture.
151 E tata ana mai koe, e Ihowa: he pono katoa au whakahau.
152 Nonamata ahau i matau ai ki au whakaaturanga, he mea whakapumau nau no tua whakarere. REHE
153 Whakaaro mai ki toku mate, a whakaorangia ahau: kahore hoki ahau e wareware ki tau ture.
154 Tohea taku tohe, whakaorangia hoki ahau: kia rite ki tau kupu tau whakahauoranga i ahau.
155 Kei tawhiti atu i te hunga kino te whakaoranga: kahore hoki ratou e rapu ki au tikanga.
156 E Ihowa, he nui au mahi tohu: kia rite ki au whakaritenga tau whakahauora i ahau.
157 He tokomaha oku kaitukino, oku hoariri: heoi kahore ahau i peka ke i au whakaaturanga.
158 I kite ahau i nga kaimahi i te kino, a pouri iho: no ratou kahore e pupuri i tau kupu.
159 Tirohia mai toku aroha ki au ako: kia rite ki tou aroha, e Ihowa, tau whakahauora i ahau.
160 Ko te huinga katoatanga o tau kupu he pono; pumau katoa anao au whakaritenga tika ake ake. HINE
161 Hore he rawa i tukinotia ai ahau e nga rangatira: otiia e wehi ana toku ngakau i tau kupu.
162 E hari ana ahau ki tau kupu: ano he tangata kua whiwhi ki te taonga nui.
163 E kino ana ahau, e whakarihariha ana ki te korero teka: ko tau ture ia taku i aroha ai.
164 Takiwhitu aku whakamoemiti ki a koe i te ra tahi mo au whakaritenga tika.
165 He rangimarie nui to te hunga e aroha ana ki tau ture: e kore hoki o ratou waewae e tutuki.
166 A kua tumanako ahau ki tau whakaora, e Ihowa, kua mahi ahau i au whakahau.
167 Kua puritia e toku wairua au whakaaturanga, ae, e arohaina nuitia ana e ahau.
168 Kua puritia e ahau au ako me au whakaaturanga: kei tou aroaro hoki oku ara katoa. TAU
169 Tukua atu taku tangi kia tata atu ki tou aroaro, e Ihowa: homai he mahara ki ahau, kia rite ki tau kupu.
170 Kia tae atu taku inoi ki tou aroaro: kia rite ki tau kupu whakaora i ahau.
171 Kia whakapuaki oku ngutu i te whakamoemiti: e whakaako ana hoki koe i ahau ki au tikanga.
172 Ma toku arero e korero tau kupu: he tika hoki au whakahau katoa.
173 Kia rite tou ringa ki te awhina i ahau; kua whiriwhiria hoki e ahau ko au ako.
174 Kua matenui ahau ki tau whakaora, e Ihowa: ko tau ture hoki toku oranga ngakau.
175 Kia ora toku wairua, a ka whakamoemiti ia ki a koe: kia awhinatia hoki ahau e au whakaritenga.
176 Kua kotiti ke ahau me he hipi ngaro: rapua tau pononga, kahore hoki ahau e wareware ki au whakahau.
