Verses 121–128 of Psalm 119
The words
I have performed all that is right and just, So leave me not to my oppressors’ will. Ensure the welfare of your servant, LORD; Let not the insolent oppress me still.
My eyes grow weak while looking for your aid, While waiting for your righteous promise, LORD; So deal with me according to your love, And teach me the commandments of your word.
I am your servant; give enlightenment So that your statutes I may understand. O LORD, now is the time for you to act; Your law is being broken in the land.
Because I set my heart on your commands, And love them more than gold, than purest gold, And since I reckon all your precepts right, Each wicked path with hatred I behold.

How is this list ordered?
Curated pairings come first — a tune a curator recorded against this text, with the fitness they recorded. A tune that merely shares the meter is listed as a tune in the same meter and never as a pairing.
Nothing here is ranked by popularity or use. The page reports what a curator recorded, not a verdict of its own.
