145 With my whole heart I cry; answer me, O Lord.
   I will keep your statutes.
146 I cry to you; save me,
   that I may observe your decrees.
147 I rise before dawn and cry for help;
   I put my hope in your words.
148 My eyes are awake before each watch of the night,
   that I may meditate on your promise.
149 In your steadfast love hear my voice;
   O Lord, in your justice preserve my life.
150 Those who persecute me with evil purpose draw near;
   they are far from your law.
151 Yet you are near, O Lord,
   and all your commandments are true.
152 Long ago I learned from your decrees
   that you have established them for ever.


153 Look on my misery and rescue me,
   for I do not forget your law.
154 Plead my cause and redeem me;
   give me life according to your promise.
155 Salvation is far from the wicked,
   for they do not seek your statutes.
156 Great is your mercy, O Lord;
   give me life according to your justice.
157 Many are my persecutors and my adversaries,
   yet I do not swerve from your decrees.
158 I look at the faithless with disgust,
   because they do not keep your commands.
159 Consider how I love your precepts;
   preserve my life according to your steadfast love.
160 The sum of your word is truth;
   and every one of your righteous ordinances endures for ever.


161 Princes persecute me without cause,
   but my heart stands in awe of your words.
162 I rejoice at your word
   like one who finds great spoil.
163 I hate and abhor falsehood,
   but I love your law.
164 Seven times a day I praise you
   for your righteous ordinances.
165 Great peace have those who love your law;
   nothing can make them stumble.
166 I hope for your salvation, O Lord,
   and I fulfil your commandments.
167 My soul keeps your decrees;
   I love them exceedingly.
168 I keep your precepts and decrees,
   for all my ways are before you.


169 Let my cry come before you, O Lord;
   give me understanding according to your word.
170 Let my supplication come before you;
   deliver me according to your promise.
171 My lips will pour forth praise,
   because you teach me your statutes.
172 My tongue will sing of your promise,
   for all your commandments are right.
173 Let your hand be ready to help me,
   for I have chosen your precepts.
174 I long for your salvation, O Lord,
   and your law is my delight.
175 Let me live that I may praise you,
   and let your ordinances help me.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek out your servant,
   for I do not forget your commandments.
