155Salvation is far from the wicked; For they seek not thy statutes.
156Great are thy tender mercies, O Jehovah: Quicken me according to thine ordinances.
157Many are my persecutors and mine adversaries; Yet have I not swerved from thy testimonies.
158I beheld the treacherous, and was grieved, Because they observe not thy word.
159Consider how I love thy precepts: Quicken me, O Jehovah, according to thy lovingkindness.
160The sum of thy word is truth; And every one of thy righteous ordinances endureth for ever.
161Princes have persecuted me without a cause; But my heart standeth in awe of thy words.
