Psalms 119:92-96
Context119:92 If I had not found encouragement in your law, 1
I would have died in my sorrow. 2
119:93 I will never forget your precepts,
for by them you have revived me.
119:94 I belong to you. Deliver me!
For I seek your precepts.
119:95 The wicked prepare to kill me, 3
yet I concentrate on your rules.
119:96 I realize that everything has its limits,
but your commands are beyond full comprehension. 4
[119:92] 1 tn Heb “if your law had not been my delight.”
[119:92] 2 tn Or “my suffering.”
[119:95] 3 tn Heb “the wicked wait for me to kill me.”
[119:96] 4 tn Heb “to every perfection I have seen an end, your command is very wide.” God’s law is beyond full comprehension, which is why the psalmist continually studies it (vv. 95, 97).
