Psalm 119:51-53
New English Translation

51 Arrogant people do nothing but scoff at me.[a]
Yet I do not turn aside from your law.
52 I remember your ancient regulations,[b]
O Lord, and console myself.[c]
53 Rage takes hold of me because of the wicked,
those who reject your law.

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 119:51 tn Heb “scoff at me to excess.”
  2. Psalm 119:52 tn Heb “I remember your regulations from of old.” The prepositional phrase “from of old” apparently modifies “your regulations,” alluding to the fact that God revealed them to Israel in the distant past. Another option is to understand the prepositional phrase as modifying the verb, in which case one might translate, “I have long remembered your regulations.”
  3. Psalm 119:52 tn Or “find comfort.”
