89 Forever, O Yahweh,
Your word stands firm in heaven.
90 Your faithfulness endures from generation to generation;
You established the earth, and it stands.
91 They stand this day according to Your judgments,
For all things are Your slaves.
92 If Your law had not been my delight,
Then I would have perished in my affliction.
93 I will never forget Your precepts,
For by them You have revived me.
94 I am Yours, save me;
For I have sought Your precepts.
95 The wicked hope for me—to destroy me;
I shall perceive Your testimonies.
96 I have seen a limit to all perfection;
Your commandment is exceedingly broad. Psalms 119:88-96 (LSB)
