Psalms 119:49-56

49Remember the word ⌞you gave⌟ me. Through it you gave me hope.

50This is my comfort in my misery: Your promise gave me a new life.

51Arrogant people have mocked me with cruelty, yet I have not turned away from your teachings.

52I remembered your regulations from long ago, O Lord, and I found comfort ⌞in them⌟.

53I am burning with anger because of wicked people, who abandon your teachings.

54Your laws have become like psalms to me in this place where I am only a foreigner.

55At night I remember your name, O Lord, and I follow your teachings.

56This has happened to me because I have obeyed your guiding principles.
