Psalms 119 — Context

Rulers make evil designs against me; but your servant gives thought to your rules.

Your unchanging word is my delight, and the guide of my footsteps.

My soul is joined to the dust: O give me life, in keeping with your word.

I put the record of my ways before you, and you gave me an answer: O give me knowledge of your rules.

Make the way of your orders clear to me; then my thoughts will be ever on your wonders.

My soul is wasted with sorrow; give me strength again in keeping with your word

Take from me every false way; and in mercy give me your law.
