153 (A)Consider my affliction and deliver me,
For I do not forget Your law.

Revive me according to Your word.

For they do not seek Your statutes.
156 [a]Great are Your tender mercies, O Lord;
Revive me according to Your judgments.
157 Many are my persecutors and my enemies,
Yet I do not (C)turn from Your testimonies.
158 I see the treacherous, and (D)am disgusted,
Because they do not keep Your word.
159 Consider how I love Your precepts;
Revive me, O Lord, according to Your lovingkindness.
160 The entirety of Your word is truth,
And every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever.

But my heart stands in awe of Your word.

As one who finds great treasure.

But I love Your law.
164 Seven times a day I praise You,
Because of Your righteous judgments.
165 (F)Great peace have those who love Your law,
And [b]nothing causes them to stumble.
166 (G)Lord, I hope for Your salvation,
And I do Your commandments.
167 My soul keeps Your testimonies,
And I love them exceedingly.
168 I keep Your precepts and Your testimonies,
(H)For all my ways are before You.
ת TAU
169 Let my cry come before You, O Lord;
(I)Give me understanding according to Your word.
170 Let my [c]supplication come before You;
Deliver me according to Your word.
171 (J)My lips shall utter praise,
For You teach me Your statutes.
172 My tongue shall speak of Your word,
For all Your commandments are righteousness.
173 Let Your hand become my help,
For (K)I have chosen Your precepts.
174 (L)I long for Your salvation, O Lord,
And (M)Your law is my delight.
175 Let my soul live, and it shall praise You;
And let Your judgments help me.

Seek Your servant,
For I do not forget Your commandments.
