92 [a]If your law had not been my delight,
    I would have already perished in my misery.

    for through them you have given me life.
94 I am yours; save me,
    for I seek your commandments.

  1. Psalm 119:92 The psalmist confesses that if through God’s law he had not found meaning in the experience of his affliction, he would have perished. Therefore, no matter what his persecutors do, he will not forget God’s precepts because they give order and preservation of life. For he knows that just as there are laws for the order in nature, so also are there laws for human conduct.
