Psalms 119:55
53 Rage has taken hold of me because of the wicked who reject Your law.
54 Your statutes are songs to me in the house of my pilgrimage.
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.
57 The LORD is my portion; I have promised to keep Your words.
