47 And I will delight myself in Your commandments,
Which I love.
48 My hands also I will lift up to Your commandments,
Which I love,
And I will meditate on Your statutes.
ז Zayin
49 Remember the word to Your servant,
Upon which You have caused me to hope.
50 This
is my
acomfort in my affliction,
For Your word has given me life.
51 The proud have me in great derision,
Yet I do not turn aside from Your law.
52 I remembered Your judgments of old, O
Lord,
And have comforted myself.
53 aIndignation has taken hold of me
Because of the wicked, who forsake Your law.
54 Your statutes have been my songs
In the house of my pilgrimage.
55 aI remember Your name in the night, O
Lord,
And I keep Your law.
56 This has become mine,
Because I kept Your precepts.
ח Heth
57 aYou are my portion, O
Lord;
I have said that I would keep Your words.
58 I entreated Your favor with
my whole heart;
Be merciful to me according to Your word.
