New International Version

Psalm 119:45-58 New International Version (NIV)

45. I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts.

46. I will speak of your statutes before kings and will not be put to shame,

47. for I delight in your commands because I love them.

48. I reach out for your commands, which I love, that I may meditate on your decrees.

49. Remember your word to your servant, for you have given me hope.

50. My comfort in my suffering is this: Your promise preserves my life.

51. The arrogant mock me unmercifully, but I do not turn from your law.

52. I remember, Lord, your ancient laws, and I find comfort in them.

53. Indignation grips me because of the wicked, who have forsaken your law.

54. Your decrees are the theme of my song wherever I lodge.

55. In the night, Lord, I remember your name, that I may keep your law.

56. This has been my practice: I obey your precepts.

57. You are my portion, Lord; I have promised to obey your words.

58. I have sought your face with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise.
