56 This I had: because I kept thy commandments.

_Portio mea, Domine_.

Thou art my portion, O Lord: I have promised to keep thy law.

58 I made my humble petition in thy presence with my whole heart:

O be merciful unto me, according to thy word.

59 I called mine own ways to remembrance: and turned my feet unto

thy testimonies.

60 I made haste, and prolonged not the time: to keep thy

commandments.

61 The congregations of the ungodly have robbed me: but I have not

forgotten thy law.

62 At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee: because of thy

righteous judgements.

63 I am a companion of all them that fear thee: and keep thy

commandments.
