Psalms 119:85-92

⁸⁵The presumptuous have dug pits for me, which is not in accordance with thy law.

⁸⁶All thy commandments are founded on truth: without cause they persecute me; help thou me.

⁸⁷But little was wanting that they had consumed me upon earth; but I have truly not forsaken thy precepts.

⁸⁸According to thy kindness give me life, that I may observe the testimony of thy mouth.

⁸⁹LAMED. To eternity, O Lord, standeth firm thy word with the heavens.

⁹⁰Unto all generations endureth thy faithfulness: thou hast established the earth, and she standeth.

⁹¹According to thy ordinances they exist this day: for all are thy servants.

⁹²Unless thy law had been my delights, I should long since have been lost in my affliction.
