Psalm 119:133 (The Message)
129-136 Every word you give me is a miracle word—
how could I help
but obey?
Break open your words, let the light shine out,
let ordinary
people see the meaning.
Mouth open and panting,
I wanted your commands
more than anything.
Turn my way, look kindly on me,
as you always do to
those who personally love you.
Steady my steps with your Word of promise
so nothing malign gets the better of me.
Rescue me from the grip of bad
men and women
so I can live life your way.
Smile on me, your servant;
teach me the right way to live.
I cry rivers of tears
because
nobody's living by your book!
American Standard Version
Establish my footsteps in thy word; And let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
Contemporary English Version
Keep your promise
and don't let me stumble
or let sin control my life.
Keep your promise
and don't let me stumble
or let sin control my life.
English Standard Version
Keep steady my steps according to your promise, and let no iniquity get dominion over me.
Keep steady my steps according to your promise, and let no iniquity get dominion over me.
King James Version
Order my steps in thy word: and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.
New International Version
Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me.
Read the different versions closely and see how
each of them speaks to you!!
