Psalms 119:138 — Meaning and Application

Rivers of waters run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.

TZADDI. Righteous {art} thou, O LORD, and upright {are} thy judgments.

Thy testimonies {that} thou hast commanded {are} righteous and very faithful. {righteous: Heb. righteousness} {faithful: Heb. faithfulness}

My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words. {consumed...: Heb. cut me off}

Thy word {is} very pure: therefore thy servant loveth it. {pure: Heb. tried, or, refined}
