Psalms 119:176, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
Psalm 119 is a long acrostic poem in which a single speaker, likely a faithful Israelite facing mockery and opposition, keeps returning to God's law as his hope. The closing verse uses the image of a sheep that has wandered off, a picture familiar from Israel's prophets, who described the people as sheep without a shepherd.
