Psalms 119:89 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 119:89

87 They almost made an end of me on earth,
But I did not forsake Your precepts.

88 Revive me according to Your lovingkindness,
So that I may keep the testimony of Your mouth.

89 ^aForever, O Lord,
Your word¹ is settled in heaven.

90 Your faithfulness endures to all generations;
You established the earth, and it¹ abides.

91 They continue this day according to ^aYour ordinances,
For all are Your servants.

92 Unless Your law had been my delight,
I would then have perished in my affliction.

93 I will never forget Your precepts,
For by them You have given me life.

94 I am Yours, save me;
For I have sought Your precepts.

95 The wicked wait for me to destroy me,
But I will¹ consider Your testimonies.
