Psalm 119:137–160
137 You are righteous, O Yahweh,
and your ordinances are upright.
138 You have ordained your testimonies in righteousness,
and in exceeding faithfulness.
because my enemies have forgotten your words.
and your servant loves it.
yet I do not forget your precepts.
142 Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,
and your law is truth.
143 Trouble and anguish have found me;
your commands delight me.
144 The righteousness of your testimonies is forever;
give me understanding that I may live.
145 I call with my whole heart; answer me, O Yahweh.
I will keep your statutes.
and I will heed your testimonies.
147 I rise early in the dawn and cry for help;
I hope in your word.q
148 My eyes anticipate the night watches,
that I may meditate on your word.
149 Hear my voice according to your loyal love;
O Yahweh, preserve my life according to your justice.
150 Those who pursue a wicked purpose draw near;
they are far from your law.
and all your commands are truth.
152 Concerning your testimonies, I knew long ago
that you have established them forever.
153 See my misery and rescue me,
for I do not forget your law.
154 Plead my cause and redeem me;
preserve my life according to your word.r
155 Salvation is far from the wicked,
for they do not seek your statutes.
156 Your mercies are great, O Yahweh;
preserve my life according to your ordinances.
157 My persecutors and enemies are many,
yet I do not turn aside from your testimonies.
158 I see the treacherous and I feel disgust,
because they do not heed your word.
159 Considers that I love your precepts;
O Yahweh, according to your loyal love preserve my life.
160 The ⌊whole⌋t of your word is truth,
and your every righteous judgment endures forever.
