Chapter 119
51The arrogant utterly deride me, Yet I do not turn aside from Your Law. 52I have remembered Your judgments from of old, Lord, And comfort myself. 53Burning indignation has seized me because of the wicked, Who abandon Your Law. 54Your statutes are my songs In the house of my pilgrimage. 55Lord, I remember Your name in the night, And keep Your Law. 56This has become mine, That I comply with Your precepts. 57The Lord is my portion; I have promised to keep Your words. 58I sought Your favor with all my heart; Be gracious to me according to Your word. 59I considered my ways And turned my feet to Your testimonies. 60I hurried and did not delay To keep Your commandments. 61The snares of the wicked have surrounded me, But I have not forgotten Your Law. 62At midnight I will rise to give thanks to You Because of Your righteous judgments. 63I am a companion to all those who fear You, And to those who keep Your precepts. 64The earth is full of Your goodness, Lord; Teach me Your statutes. 65You have treated Your servant well, Lord, according to Your word. 66Teach me good discernment and knowledge, For I believe in Your commandments. 67Before I was afflicted I went astray, But now I keep Your word. 68You are good and You do good; Teach me Your statutes.King James Version
55I have remembered thy name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept thy law.
56This I had, because I kept thy precepts.
59I thought on my ways, and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
60I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

51The arrogant constantly ridicule me, but I do not turn away from your instruction. 52Lord, I remember your judgments from long ago and find comfort. 53Fury seizes me because of the wicked who reject your instruction. 54Your statutes are the theme of my song during my earthly life. 55Lord, I remember your name in the night, and I obey your instruction. 56This is my practice: I obey your precepts. 57The Lord is my portion; I have promised to keep your words. 58I have sought your favor with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise. 59I thought about my ways and turned my steps back to your decrees. 60I hurried, not hesitating to keep your commands. 61Though the ropes of the wicked were wrapped around me, I did not forget your instruction. 62I rise at midnight to thank you for your righteous judgments. 63I am a friend to all who fear you, to those who keep your precepts. 64Lord, the earth is filled with your faithful love; teach me your statutes. 65Lord, you have treated your servant well, just as you promised. 66Teach me good judgment and discernment, for I rely on your commands. 67Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I keep your word. 68You are good, and you do what is good; teach me your statutes.New Living Translation
Chapter 119
51The proud hold me in utter contempt, but I do not turn away from your instructions. 52I meditate on your age-old regulations; O Lord, they comfort me. 53I become furious with the wicked, because they reject your instructions. 54Your decrees have been the theme of my songs wherever I have lived. 55I reflect at night on who you are, O Lord; therefore, I obey your instructions. 56This is how I spend my life: obeying your commandments.
57Lord, you are mine! I promise to obey your words!
58With all my heart I want your blessings. Be merciful as you promised.
59I pondered the direction of my life, and I turned to follow your laws.
60I will hurry, without delay, to obey your commands.
61Evil people try to drag me into sin, but I am firmly anchored to your instructions.
62I rise at midnight to thank you for your just regulations.
63I am a friend to anyone who fears you — anyone who obeys your commandments.
64O Lord, your unfailing love fills the earth; teach me your decrees.

Chapter 119
51The insolent utterly deride me, but I do not turn away from your law. 52When I think of your rules from of old, I take comfort, O LORD. 53Hot indignation seizes me because of the wicked, who forsake your law. 54Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my sojourning. 55I remember your name in the night, O LORD, and keep your law. 56This blessing has fallen to me, that I have kept your precepts.
57The LORD is my portion; I promise to keep your words.
58I entreat your favor with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise.
59When I think on my ways, I turn my feet to your testimonies;
60I hasten and do not delay to keep your commandments.
61Though the cords of the wicked ensnare me, I do not forget your law.
62At midnight I rise to praise you, because of your righteous rules.
63I am a companion of all who fear you, of those who keep your precepts.
64The earth, O LORD, is full of your steadfast love; teach me your statutes!
