SCHIN: Peace Despite Persecution and Rejoicing in the Word

Psalms 119:161-168

161

Rulers persecute me without cause, but my heart fears only Your word.

I rejoice in Your promise like one who finds great spoil.

163

I hate and abhor falsehood, but Your law I love.

164

Seven times a day I praise You for Your righteous judgments.

165

Abundant peace belongs to those who love Your law; nothing can make them stumble.

166

I wait for Your salvation, O LORD, and I carry out Your commandments.

167

I obey Your testimonies and love them greatly.

168

I obey Your precepts and Your testimonies, for all my ways are before You.
