Psalm 119:47-56 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

47. I take delight in obeying your commands because I love them.

48. I praise your commands, and I love them. I spend time thinking about your orders.

49. Remember what you have said to me. You have given me hope.

50. Even when I suffer, I am comforted because you promised to keep me alive.

51. Proud people are always making fun of me. But I don't turn away from your law.

52. Lord, I remember the laws you gave long ago. I find comfort in them.

53. I am very angry because evil people have turned away from your law.

54. No matter where I live, I sing about your orders.

55. Lord, during the night I remember who you are. That's why I keep your law.

56. I have really done my best to obey your rules.
