נ Nun

105 Your word is a lamp(A) for my feet,
    a light(B) on my path.
106 I have taken an oath(C) and confirmed it,
    that I will follow your righteous laws.(D)
107 I have suffered much;
    preserve my life,(E) Lord, according to your word.
108 Accept, Lord, the willing praise of my mouth,(F)
    and teach me your laws.(G)
109 Though I constantly take my life in my hands,(H)
    I will not forget(I) your law.
110 The wicked have set a snare(J) for me,
    but I have not strayed(K) from your precepts.
111 Your statutes are my heritage forever;
    they are the joy of my heart.(L)
112 My heart is set(M) on keeping your decrees
    to the very end.[a](N)
