56 This has been my practicebecause I guard your precepts.
57 The Lord is my possession.I promise to do what you have said.
58 I’ve sought your favor with all my heart;have mercy on me according to your word.
59 I’ve considered my ways and turned my feet back to your laws.
60 I hurry to keep your commandments—I never put it off!
61 Though the wicked have surrounded me with their ropes,I haven’t forgotten your Instruction.
62 I get up in the middle of the night to give thanks to youbecause of your righteous rules.
