47And so that I may take delight in your teachings, to which I have given my love.
48And so that my hands may be stretched out to you; and I will give thought to your rules.
49ZAIN Keep in mind your word to your servant, for on it has my hope been fixed.
50This is my comfort in my trouble; that your sayings have given me life.
51The men of pride have made great sport of me; but I have not been turned from your law.
52I have kept the memory of your decisions from times past, O Lord; and they have been my comfort.
53I am burning with wrath, because of the sinners who have given up your law.
54Your rules have been melodies to me, while I have been living in strange lands.
55I have given thought to your name in the night, O Lord, and have kept your law.
56This has been true of me, that I have kept your orders in my heart.
57CHETH The Lord is my heritage: I have said that I would be ruled by your words.
58I have given my mind to do your pleasure with all my heart; have mercy on me, as you have said.
59I gave thought to my steps, and my feet were turned into the way of your unchanging word.
60I was quick to do your orders, and let no time be wasted.
61The cords of evil-doers are round me; but I have kept in mind your law.
62In the middle of the night I will get up to give you praise, because of all your right decisions.
