153RESH. Look on my affliction, and release me; for thy law have I not forgotten.
154Plead my cause, and deliver me: according to thy promise do thou revive me.
155Far from the wicked is salvation; because thy statutes have they not sought for.
156Thy mercies are abundant, O Lord; according to thy decrees do thou revive me.
157Many are my persecutors and my assailants: yet from thy testimonies do I not turn away.
158I beheld the treacherous, and felt disgust; because they observed not thy saying.
159Behold that I love thy precepts: O Lord, according to thy kindness do thou revive me.
160The summit of thy word is truth: and the whole of thy righteous judgment endureth for ever.
161SHIN. Princes have persecuted me without a cause; but of thy word standeth my heart in dread.
162I am rejoiced over thy promise, as one that findeth great spoil.
163Falsehood I hate and abhor: but thy law do I love.
164Seven times in the day do I praise thee because of thy righteous decrees.
165Abundant peace have they who love thy law; and thee is nothing that causeth them to stumble.
166I have hoped for thy salvation, O Lord, and thy commandments have I fulfilled.
167My soul hath observed thy testimonies, and I love them exceedingly.
168I have observed thy precepts and thy testimonies; because all my ways are before thee.
169TAV. Let my entreaty come near before thee, O Lord: according to thy word grant me understanding.
170Let my supplication come before thee: according to thy promise do thou deliver me.
171My lips shall utter praise; because thou wilt teach me thy statutes.
172My tongue shall speak loudly of thy promise; for all thy commandments are righteous.
173Let thy hand be ready to help me; for thy precepts have I chosen.
174I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord; and thy law is my delights.
