Psalms 119:57 - Ellicott's Commentary On The Whole Bible

Bible Comments

CHETH.

(57) Thou art my portion, O Lord. — This rendering is in accordance with Psalms 16:5; Psalms 73:26. But, even with these passages in view, a better rendering would be —

“This is my portion, O Lord, I said (it),
To keep Thy words.”

Psalms 119:57

57 CHETH. Thou art my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep thy words.
