Psalm 119 - Zain, The 7th Part.

8.6.8.6 49 Remember, Lord, thy gracious word thou to thy servant spake, Which, for a ground of my sure hope, thou causedst me to take.

50 This word of thine my comfort is in mine affliction: For in my straits I am reviv’d by this thy word alone.

51 The men whose hearts with pride are stuff’d did greatly me deride;

Yet from thy straight commandements I have not turn’d aside.

52 Thy judgments righteous, O Lord, which thou of old forth gave, I did remember, and myself by them comforted have.

53 Horror took hold on me, because ill men thy law forsake.

54 I in my house of pilgrimage thy laws my songs do make.

55 Thy name by night, Lord, I did mind, and I have kept thy law.

56 And this I had, because thy word I kept, and stood in awe.
