154Defend my cause and redeem me: revive me, as you have promised.
155Salvation is far from the wicked, for their mind is not in your statutes.
156Great is your pity, O Lord: Revive me, as you have ordained.
157My foes and tormentors are many, but I have not declined from your charges.
158I behold the traitors with loathing, for they do not observe your word.
159Behold how I love your precepts: revive me, O Lord!, in your kindness.
160The sum of your word is truth, all your laws are just and eternal.
161Princes have harassed me wantonly: but my heart stands in awe of your word.
162Over your word I rejoice as one who finds great spoil.
163Falsehood I hate and abhor, but your law do I love.
164Seven times a day do I praise you because of your righteous judgements.
165Right well do they fare who love your law: they go on their way without stumbling.
166I hope for your salvation; O Lord I do your commandments.
167I observe your charges: I love them greatly.
168I observe your precepts and charges: all my ways are before you.
169Let my cry come before you, O Lord: give me insight, as you have promised.
170Let my prayer enter into your presence: deliver me, as you have said.
171My lips shall be fountains of praise, that you teach me your statutes.
172My tongue shall sing of your word, for all your commandments are right.
