Psalms 119:113
111 Your testimonies are my heritage forever, for they are the joy of my heart.
112 I have inclined my heart to perform Your statutes, even to the very end.
The double-minded I despise, but Your law I love.
114 You are my hiding place and my shield; I put my hope in Your word.
115 Depart from me, you evildoers, that I may obey the commandments of my God.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
