Psalm 119:45-55
45
I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts.
46
I will speak of your statutes before kings and will not be put to shame,
47
for I delight in your commands because I love them.
48
I reach out for your commands, which I love, that I may meditate on your decrees.
49
Remember your word to your servant, for you have given me hope.
50
My comfort in my suffering is this: Your promise preserves my life.
51
The arrogant mock me unmercifully, but I do not turn from your law.
52
I remember, LORD, your ancient laws, and I find comfort in them.
53
Indignation grips me because of the wicked, who have forsaken your law.
54
Your decrees are the theme of my song wherever I lodge.
55
In the night, LORD, I remember your name, that I may keep your law.
