Psalms 119:87

⁸⁵ The arrogant have dug pits for me in violation of Your law.

⁸⁶ All Your commandments are faithful; I am persecuted without cause—help me!

They almost wiped me from the earth, but I have not forsaken Your precepts.

⁸⁸ Revive me according to Your loving devotion, that I may obey the testimony of Your mouth.

⁸⁹ Your word, O LORD, is everlasting; it is firmly fixed in the heavens.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
