Psalm 119:60
 Psalm 119:60 
New International Version (© 2011)
I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands.

King James Bible
I made haste, and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

American Standard Version
I made haste, and delayed not, To observe thy commandments.

Young's Literal Translation
I have made haste, And delayed not, to keep Thy commands.

Psalm 119:60 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

Thirdly. I made haste, and delayed not - He did this with the utmost speed; and did not trifle with his convictions, nor seek to drown the voice of conscience.

The original word, which we translate delayed not, is amazingly emphatical. ולא התמהמהתי velo hithmahmahti, I did not stand what-what-whating; or, as we used to express the same sentiment, shilly-shallying with myself: I was determined, and so set out. The Hebrew word, as well as the English, strongly marks indecision of mind, positive action being suspended, because the mind is so unfixed as not to be able to make a choice.
