Psalms 119 — Context

All your commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help you me.

They had almost consumed me on earth; but I forsook not your precepts.

Quicken me after your loving kindness; so shall I keep the testimony of your mouth.

For ever, O LORD, your word is settled in heaven.

Your faithfulness is to all generations: you have established the earth, and it stays.

They continue this day according to your ordinances: for all are your servants.

Unless your law had been my delights, I should then have perished in my affliction.
