The Psalms 119 “Makeover”

James writes that if we need wisdom, we can ask and receive.

If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of Elohim, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it shall be given to him.
Ya‛aqoḇ (James) 1:5 TS2009

The Hebrew letter ה HE section of Psalms 119 gives details on asking for wisdom.

ה HE

33 Teach me, O יהוה, the way of Your laws, 
And I observe it to the end.
34 Make me understand, that I might observe Your Torah, 
And guard it with all my heart.
35 Make me walk in the path of Your commands,
For I have delighted in it.
36 Incline my heart to Your witnesses,
And not to own gain. 
37 Turn away my eyes from looking at falsehood,
And revive me in Your way. 
38 Establish Your word to Your servant,
Which leads to the fear of You. 
39 Turn away my reproach which I dread,
For Your right-rulings are good.
40 See, I have longed for Your orders;
Revive me in Your righteousness.
Tehillim (Psalms) 119:33-40 TS2009

Did you catch that? The Psalmist asks YHWH to:

  • Teach me
  • Make me understand
  • Make me walk
  • Incline my heart
  • Turn away my eyes
  • Revive me
  • Establish Your word to me
  • Turn away my reproach
  • Revive me

YHWH does it all! Which reminds me of these passages.

“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who stays in Me, and I in him, he bears much fruit. Because without Me you are able to do naught!
Yoḥanan (John) 15:5 TS2009

Husbands, love your wives, as Messiah also did love the assembly and gave Himself for it, in order to set it apart and cleanse it with the washing of water by the Word, in order to present it to Himself a splendid assembly, not having spot or wrinkle or any of this sort, but that it might be set-apart and blameless.
Eph`siyim (Ephesians) 5:25-27 TS2009

“And now, listen to me, you children,
For blessed are they who guard my ways.
Listen to discipline and become wise,
And do not refuse it.
Blessed is the man who listens to me,
Watching daily at my gates,
Waiting at the posts of my doors. 
For whoever finds me shall find life,
And obtain favour from יהוה,
But he who sins against me injures himself;
All who hate me love death!”
Mishlĕ (Proverbs) 8:32-36 TS2009

Here are other translations I read too.


ה HE

33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes,
And I shall keep it to the end.
34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law;
Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
35 Make me walk in the path of Your commandments,
For I delight in it.
36 Incline my heart to Your testimonies,
And not to covetousness.
37 Turn away my eyes from looking at worthless things,
And revive me in Your way.
38 Establish Your word to Your servant,
Who is devoted to fearing You.
39 Turn away my reproach which I dread,
For Your judgments are good.
40 Behold, I long for Your precepts;
Revive me in Your righteousness.
Psalms 119:33-40 NKJV


33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, and I will keep it to the end [steadfastly].

34 Give me understanding, that I may keep Your law; yes, I will observe it with my whole heart.

35 Make me go in the path of Your commandments, for in them do I delight.

36 Incline my heart to Your testimonies and not to covetousness (robbery, sensuality, unworthy riches).

37 Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity (idols and idolatry); and restore me to vigorous life and health in Your ways.

38 Establish Your word and confirm Your promise to Your servant, which is for those who reverently fear and devotedly worship You.

39 Turn away my reproach which I fear and dread, for Your ordinances are good.

40 Behold, I long for Your precepts; in Your righteousness give me renewed life.
Psalms 119:33-40 AMPC


33 Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.

34 Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

35 Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.

36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.

37 Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.

38 Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.

39 Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.

40 Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.
Psalms 119:33-40 KJV

Here are the Eth-CEPHER and the HalleluYah Scriptures translations.

Notice the Eth-CEPHER definition of YHWH.

Has the rapture happened?
   You can still be saved and go to heaven!
---
Are you following God's plan for your life?    
   You should.
     Your plan is not going to work. 
     It is a really, really bad plan. 
     Please come to Jesus to escape your plan! 

Most people are WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!

Jesus is coming.
   Are you ready to meet Him?
   Give your life to Jesus Christ.
   Time is running out.
