145
I call with all my heart; answer me, LORD, and I will obey your decrees.
146
I call out to you; save me and I will keep your statutes.
147
I rise before dawn and cry for help; I have put my hope in your word.
148
My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, that I may meditate on your promises.
149
Hear my voice in accordance with your love; preserve my life, LORD, according to your laws.
150
Those who devise wicked schemes are near, but they are far from your law.
151
Yet you are near, LORD, and all your commands are true.
152
Long ago I learned from your statutes that you established them to last forever.
153
Look on my suffering and deliver me, for I have not forgotten your law.
154
Defend my cause and redeem me; preserve my life according to your promise.
155
Salvation is far from the wicked, for they do not seek out your decrees.
