155 Salvation is far from the wicked

because they do not study your statutes.l

156 Your compassions are many, Lord;m

give me life according to your judgments.

157 My persecutors and foes are many.n

I have not turned from your decrees.o

158 I have seen the disloyalp and feel disgustq

because they do not keep your word.

159 Consider how I love your precepts;

Lord, give me life according to your faithful love.r

160 The entirety of your word is truth,

each of your righteous judgments endures forever.s
