Psalms 119:62
60 I hurried without hesitating to keep Your commandments.
61 Though the ropes of the wicked bind me, I do not forget Your law.
At midnight I rise to give You thanks for Your righteous judgments.
63 I am a friend to all who fear You, and to those who keep Your precepts.
64 The earth is filled with Your loving devotion, O LORD; teach me Your statutes.
