Psalm 119:139-148 English Standard Version (ESV)

139. My zeal consumes me,because my foes forget your words.

140. Your promise is well tried,and your servant loves it.

141. I am small and despised,yet I do not forget your precepts.

142. Your righteousness is righteous forever,and your law is true.

143. Trouble and anguish have found me out,but your commandments are my delight.

144. Your testimonies are righteous forever; give me understanding that I may live.

145. With my whole heart I cry; answer me, O Lord!I will keep your statutes.

146. I call to you; save me,that I may observe your testimonies.

147. I rise before dawn and cry for help;I hope in your words.

148. My eyes are awake before the watches of the night,that I may meditate on your promise.
