Uphold me according unto thy word, that I may live: and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

Psalms 119:116 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

That I may live. The psalmist felt that he was so dependent upon God’s sustaining power that he could not live without it.

Not be ashamed. We need never be ashamed of our hope, for it rests upon the sure foundation of God’s Word (see Rom. 5:5; Phil. 1:20; 1 John 2:28).
