153Look at me and see that I am suffering very much, and heal me, because I do not forget your laws.
154Defend me when others accuse me, and rescue me from them; allow me to continue to live, as you promised/said that you would.
155Wicked people do not obey ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do►, so you will certainly not save them.
156Yahweh, you are very merciful; allow me to continue to live because of my obeying ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us►.
