Psalms 119:38. Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.
"Lord, make thy Word to stand fast to me, for I do love thee, I am in thy fear. Thy fear has become part of myself." If you notice, the words "is devoted" are put in by the translators. The verse should read, "Who to thy fear," as if his whole self had run into the mould and shape of a God-fearing man. He asks God therefore to establish his Word unto him, and so he did; what David asked, David’s God gave.
