Psalm 119:153-176

New King James Version

^153 (A)Consider my affliction and deliver me,
For I do not forget Your law.
^154 (B)Plead my cause and redeem me;
Revive me according to Your word.
¹⁵⁵ Salvation is far from the wicked,
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.

^161 (E)Princes persecute me without a cause,
But my heart stands in awe of Your word.
¹⁶² I rejoice at Your word
As one who finds great treasure.
¹⁶³ I hate and abhor lying,
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.

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.
^176 (N)I have gone astray like a lost sheep;
Seek Your servant,
For I do not forget Your commandments.
