Psalms 119:54
52 I remember Your judgments of old, O LORD, and in them I find comfort.
53 Rage has taken hold of me because of the wicked who reject Your law.
Your statutes are songs to me in the house of my pilgrimage.
55 In the night, O LORD, I remember Your name, that I may keep Your law.
56 This is my practice, for I obey Your precepts.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
