Psalms 119:155-168

¹⁵⁵Salvation is far from the wicked, for they do not love your statutes.

¹⁵⁶Great are your merciful actions, Yahweh; keep me alive, as you always do.

¹⁵⁷My persecutors and my foes are many, yet I have not turned from your covenant decrees.

¹⁵⁸I view the treacherous with disgust because they do not keep your word.

¹⁵⁹See how I love your instructions; keep me alive, Yahweh, as you have promised by your covenant faithfulness.

¹⁶⁰The essence of your word is truth; every one of your righteous decrees lasts forever.

¹⁶¹Princes persecute me without cause, but my heart stands in awe of your word.

¹⁶²I rejoice at your word like one who finds great plunder.

¹⁶³I hate and despise falsehood, but I love your law.

¹⁶⁴Seven times a day I praise you because of your righteous decrees.

¹⁶⁵Great peace they have, those who love your law; nothing makes them stumble.

¹⁶⁶I hope for your salvation, Yahweh, and I obey your commandments.

¹⁶⁷I observe your solemn commands, and I love them greatly.

¹⁶⁸I keep your instructions and your solemn commands, for you are aware of everything I do.
