141I am little and despised: yet thy precepts have I not forgotten.
142Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is the truth.
143Distress and trouble have overtaken me: yet are thy commandments my delights.
144Righteous are thy testimonies for everlasting: give me understanding, that I may live.
145KOPH. I have called with all my heart: answer me, O Lord: thy statutes will I keep.
146I have called on thee, save me, and I will observe thy testimonies.
147I come before thee in the dawn of morning, and cry: for thy word do I wait.
148My eyes are awake before the night-watches, that I may meditate in thy saying.
149Hear my voice according to thy kindness: O Lord, according to thy decree do thou grant me life.
150They that pursue mischievous devices draw nigh: from thy law are they far.
151Near art thou, O Lord; and all thy commandments are the truth.
