Psalms 119:51-61

51The arrogant constantly ridicule me, but I do not turn away from your instruction.

52Lord, I remember your judgments from long ago and find comfort.

53Fury seizes me because of the wicked who reject your instruction.

54Your statutes are the theme of my song during my earthly life.

55Lord, I remember your name in the night, and I obey your instruction.

56This is my practice: I obey your precepts.

57The Lord is my portion; I have promised to keep your words.

58I have sought your favor with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise.

59I thought about my ways and turned my steps back to your decrees.

60I hurried, not hesitating to keep your commands.

61Though the ropes of the wicked were wrapped around me, I did not forget your instruction.
