57Yahweh is my portion; I have determined to observe your words.
58I earnestly request your favor with my whole heart; be merciful to me, as your word promised.
59I examined my ways and turned my feet to your covenant decrees.
60I hurry and do not delay to keep your commandments.
61The cords of the wicked have ensnared me; I have not forgotten your law.
62At midnight I rise to give thanks to you because of your righteous decrees.
63I am a companion of all who honor you, to all who observe your instructions.
