47And I will delight myself in thy commandments, Which I have loved.
48I will lift up my hands also unto thy commandments, which I have loved; And I will meditate on thy statutes.
49Remember the word unto thy servant, Because thou hast made me to hope.
50This is my comfort in my affliction; For thy word hath quickened me.
51The proud have had me greatly in derision: Yet have I not swerved from thy law.
52I have remembered thine ordinances of old, O Jehovah, And have comforted myself.
53Hot indignation hath taken hold upon me, Because of the wicked that forsake thy law.
54Thy statutes have been my songs In the house of my pilgrimage.
55I have remembered thy name, O Jehovah, in the night, And have observed thy law.
56This I have had, Because I have kept thy precepts.
57Jehovah is my portion: I have said that I would observe thy words.
58I entreated thy favor with my whole heart: Be merciful unto me according to thy word.
59I thought on my ways, And turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
60I made haste, and delayed not, To observe thy commandments.
61The cords of the wicked have wrapped me round; But I have not forgotten thy law.
62At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee Because of thy righteous ordinances.
63I am a companion of all them that fear thee, And of them that observe thy precepts.
64The earth, O Jehovah, is full of thy lovingkindness: Teach me thy statutes.
65Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O Jehovah, according unto thy word.
66Teach me good judgment and knowledge; For I have believed in thy commandments.
67Before I was afflicted I went astray; But now I observe thy word.
68Thou art good, and doest good; Teach me thy statutes.
69The proud have forged a lie against me: With my whole heart will I keep thy precepts.
70Their heart is as fat as grease; But I delight in thy law.
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted; That I may learn thy statutes.
72The law of thy mouth is better unto me Than thousands of gold and silver.
73Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: Give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.
74They that fear thee shall see me and be glad, Because I have hoped in thy word.
75I know, O Jehovah, that thy judgments are righteous, And that in faithfulness thou hast afflicted me.
76Let, I pray thee, thy lovingkindness be for my comfort, According to thy word unto thy servant.
77Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live; For thy law is my delight.
78Let the proud be put to shame; for they have overthrown me wrongfully: But I will meditate on thy precepts.
79Let those that fear thee turn unto me; And they shall know thy testimonies.
80Let my heart be perfect in thy statutes, That I be not put to shame.
81My soul fainteth for thy salvation; But I hope in thy word.
82Mine eyes fail for thy word, While I say, When wilt thou comfort me?
83For I am become like a wine-skin in the smoke; Yet do I not forget thy statutes.
84How many are the days of thy servant? When wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?
85The proud have digged pits for me, Who are not according to thy law.
86All thy commandments are faithful: They persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.
87They had almost consumed me upon earth; But I forsook not thy precepts.
88Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; So shall I observe the testimony of thy mouth.
89For ever, O Jehovah, Thy word is settled in heaven.
90Thy faithfulness is unto all generations: Thou hast established the earth, and it abideth.
91They abide this day according to thine ordinances; For all things are thy servants.
92Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction.
93I will never forget thy precepts; For with them thou hast quickened me.
