147I before came in ripeness, and I cried; I hoped above on thy words.
148Mine eyes before came to thee full early; that I should bethink on thy speeches.
149Lord, hear thou my voice by thy mercy; and quicken or enliven thou me by thy doom.
150They that pursue me nighed to wickedness; forsooth they be made far from thy law.
151Lord, thou art nigh; and all thy ways be truth.
152In the beginning I knew of thy witnessings; for thou hast founded those or them without end.
153Resh. See thou my meekness, and deliver thou me; for I forgat not thy law.
