Ps 119:33-48: For the psalmist, life is built around devotion to God’s word. He does not want to be sidetracked by trying to gain wealth or prestige (Ps 119:33-37).
What he dreads most is to displease God. What he longs for is a life directed by God through his word (Ps 119:38-40).
The word gives him assurance of salvation, which in turn gives him courage to answer those who mock him (Ps 119:41-43), confidence to live in the freedom God has given him (Ps 119:44-45), and boldness to speak about God to the nation’s rulers (Ps 119:46-48).
