47. And I delight myself in Thy commands, That I have loved,
48. And I lift up my hands unto Thy commands, That I have loved, And I do meditate on Thy statutes!
49. [Zain.] Remember the word to Thy servant, On which Thou hast caused me to hope.
50. This [is] my comfort in mine affliction, That Thy saying hath quickened me.
51. The proud have utterly scorned me, From Thy law I have not turned aside.
52. I remembered Thy judgments of old, O Jehovah, And I comfort myself.
53. Horror hath seized me, Because of the wicked forsaking Thy law.
54. Songs have been to me Thy statutes, In the house of my sojournings.
55. I have remembered in the night Thy name, O Jehovah, And I do keep Thy law.
56. This hath been to me, That Thy precepts I have kept!
57. [Cheth.] My portion [is] Jehovah; I have said--to keep Thy words,
58. I appeased Thy face with the whole heart, Favour me according to Thy saying.
59. I have reckoned my ways, And turn back my feet unto Thy testimonies.
60. I have made haste, And delayed not, to keep Thy commands.
61. Cords of the wicked have surrounded me, Thy law I have not forgotten.
62. At midnight I rise to give thanks to Thee, For the judgments of Thy righteousness.
