“Princes also did sit and speak against me: but thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.”
Even though princes sit and plot against me, your servant will meditate on your statutes. Despite political opposition ('princes sit and plot'), the psalmist will continue Torah-meditation ('will meditate on your statutes'), positioning law-study as resistant practice. This verse portrays the law as the bulwark against political oppression.
