New Testament

Psalm 119:52-70 American Standard Version (ASV)

52. I have remembered thine ordinances of old, O Jehovah, And have comforted myself.

53. Hot indignation hath taken hold upon me, Because of the wicked that forsake thy law.

54. Thy statutes have been my songs In the house of my pilgrimage.

55. I have remembered thy name, O Jehovah, in the night, And have observed thy law.

56. This I have had, Because I have kept thy precepts.

57. Jehovah is my portion: I have said that I would observe thy words.

58. I entreated thy favor with my whole heart: Be merciful unto me according to thy word.

59. I thought on my ways, And turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

60. I made haste, and delayed not, To observe thy commandments.

61. The cords of the wicked have wrapped me round; But I have not forgotten thy law.

62. At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee Because of thy righteous ordinances.

63. I am a companion of all them that fear thee, And of them that observe thy precepts.

64. The earth, O Jehovah, is full of thy lovingkindness: Teach me thy statutes.

65. Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O Jehovah, according unto thy word.

66. Teach me good judgment and knowledge; For I have believed in thy commandments.

67. Before I was afflicted I went astray; But now I observe thy word.

68. Thou art good, and doest good; Teach me thy statutes.

69. The proud have forged a lie against me: With my whole heart will I keep thy precepts.

70. Their heart is as fat as grease; But I delight in thy law.
