Psalm 119 (NIV): ז Zayin - ח Heth

...LISTEN...

   ז Zayin
 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 without restraint,
   but I do not turn from your law.
52 I remember your ancient laws, O LORD,
   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 I remember your name, O LORD,
   and I will keep your law.
56 This has been my practice:
   I obey your precepts.

   ח Heth
 57 You are my portion, O LORD;
   I have promised to obey your words.
58 I have sought your face with all my heart;
   be gracious to me according to your promise.
59 I have considered my ways
   and have turned my steps to your statutes.
60 I will hasten and not delay
   to obey your commands.
61 Though the wicked bind me with ropes,
   I will not forget your law.
62 At midnight I rise to give you thanks
   for your righteous laws.
63 I am a friend to all who fear you,
   to all who follow your precepts.
64 The earth is filled with your love, O LORD;
   teach me your decrees.
