57
the Lord is my portion; i have promised to keep Thy words.
58
i entreated Thy favor with all my heart; be gracious to me according to Thy word.
59
i considered my ways, and turned my feet to Thy testimonies.
60
i hastened and did not delay to keep Thy commandments.
61
the cords of the wicked have encircled me, but i have not forgotten Thy law.
62
at midnight i shall rise to give thanks to Thee because of Thy righteous ordinances.
63
i am a companion of all those who fear Thee, and of those who keep Thy precepts.
64
the earth is full of Thy lovingkindness, O Lord; teach me Thy statutes.
