48 I will lift up my hands also unto thy commandments, which I have loved;

And I will meditate on thy statutes.

49 Remember the word unto thy servant,

Because thou hast made me to hope.

50 This is my comfort in my affliction;

For thy word hath quickened me.

51 The proud have had me greatly in derision:

Yet have I not swerved from thy law.

52 I have remembered thine ordinances of old, O Jehovah,

And have comforted myself.
