146 (118-146) I cried unto thee, save me: that I may keep thy commandments.

147 (118-147) I prevented the dawning of the day, and cried: because in thy words I very much hoped.

148 (118-148) My eyes to thee have prevented the morning: that I might meditate on thy words.

149 (118-149) Hear thou my voice, O Lord, according to thy mercy: and quicken me according to thy judgment.

150 (118-150) They that persecute me have drawn nigh to iniquity; but they are gone far off from thy law.

151 (118-151) Thou art near, O Lord: and all thy ways are truth.

152 (118-152) I have known from the beginning concerning thy testimonies: that thou hast founded them for ever.

153 (118-153) See my humiliation and deliver me for I have not forgotten thy law.

154 (118-154) Judge my judgment and redeem me: quicken thou me for thy word’s sake.

155 (118-155) Salvation is far from sinners; because they have not sought thy justifications.

156 (118-156) Many, O Lord, are thy mercies: quicken me according to thy judgment.

157 (118-157) Many are they that persecute me and afflict me; but I have not declined from thy testimonies.

158 (118-158) I beheld the transgressors, and pined away; because they kept not thy word.

159 (118-159) Behold I have loved thy commandments, O Lord; quicken me thou in thy mercy.

160 (118-160) The beginning of thy words is truth: all the judgments of thy justice are for ever.

161 (118-161) Princes have persecuted me without cause: and my heart hath been in awe of thy words.

162 (118-162) I will rejoice at thy words, as one that hath found great spoil.

163 (118-163) I have hated and abhorred iniquity; but I have loved thy law.

164 (118-164) Seven times a day I have given praise to thee, for the judgments of thy justice.

165 (118-165) Much peace have they that love thy law, and to them there is no stumbling. block.

166 (118-166) I looked for thy salvation, O Lord: and I loved thy commandments.

167 (118-167) My soul hath kept thy testimonies and hath loved them exceedingly.

168 (118-168) I have kept thy commandments and thy testimonies: because all my ways are in thy sight.

169 (118-169) Let my supplication, O Lord, come near in thy sight: give me understanding according to thy word.

170 (118-170) Let my request come in before thee; deliver thou me according to thy word.

171 (118-171) My lips shall utter a hymn, when thou shalt teach me thy justifications.

172 (118-172) My tongue shall pronounce thy word: because all thy commandments are justice.

173 (118-173) Let thy hand be with me to save me; for I have chosen thy precepts.

174 (118-174) I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord; and thy law is my meditation.

175 (118-175) My soul shall live and shall praise thee: and thy judgments shall help me.

176 (118-176) I have gone astray like a sheep that is lost: seek thy servant, because I have not forgotten thy commandments.
