139My zeal wears me out, because my enemies ignore your words.
140Your promises have been thoroughly tested, and your servant loves them.
141I am small and despised. I don’t forget your precepts.
142Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness. Your law is truth.
143Trouble and anguish have taken hold of me. Your commandments are my delight.
144Your testimonies are righteous forever. Give me understanding, that I may live.
145QOPH I have called with my whole heart. Answer me, Yahweh! I will keep your statutes.
146I have called to you. Save me! I will obey your statutes.
147I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words.
148My eyes stay open through the night watches, that I might meditate on your word.
149Hear my voice according to your loving kindness. Revive me, Yahweh, according to your ordinances.
150They draw near who follow after wickedness. They are far from your law.
151You are near, Yahweh. All your commandments are truth.
152Of old I have known from your testimonies, that you have founded them forever.
153RESH Consider my affliction, and deliver me, for I don’t forget your law.
