Psalms 119:42-56 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

42. Then I will have an answer for the one who taunts me, for I trust your word.

43. And do not snatch the word of truth utterly from my mouth, for I hope in your ordinances.

44. So I will heed your law continually, forever and ever.

45. And I will go about freely, for I have sought your precepts.

46. And I will speak of your testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.

47. And I will take delight in your commands, which I love.

48. And I will lift up my hands to your commands, which I love, and I will meditate on your statutes.

49. Remember your word to your servant, upon which you have caused me to hope.

50. This is my comfort in my misery: that your word preserves my life.

51. The arrogant utterly deride me; I have not turned aside from your law.

52. I remember your ordinances of old, O Yahweh, and I take comfort.

53. Rage seizes me because of the wicked, those who forsake your law.

54. Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my sojourning.

55. I remember your name in the night, O Yahweh, and I heed your law.

56. This has been mine, that I have kept your precepts.
