142. Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, And thy law is truth.

143. Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me; Yet thy commandments are my delight.

144. Thy testimonies are righteous for ever: Give me understanding, and I shall live.

145. I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O Jehovah: I will keep thy statutes.

146. I have called unto thee; save me, And I shall observe thy testimonies.

147. I anticipated the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy words.

148. Mine eyes anticipated the night-watches, That I might meditate on thy word.

149. Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness: Quicken me, O Jehovah, according to thine ordinances.

150. They draw nigh that follow after wickedness; They are far from thy law.

151. Thou art nigh, O Jehovah; And all thy commandments are truth.
