135. Show your kindness to me, your servant.Teach me your demands.

137. Lord, you do what is right.And your laws are fair.

138. The rules you commanded are rightand completely trustworthy.

139. I am so upset I am worn out.This is because my enemies have forgotten your words.

144. Your rules are good forever.Help me understand so I can live.

145. Lord, I call to you with all my heart.Answer me,and I will keep your demands.

146. I call to you. Save meso I can obey your rules.

147. I wake up early in the morning and cry out.I trust your word.

148. I stay awake all nightso I can think about your promises.

149. Listen to me because of your love.Lord, give me life by your laws.

150. Those who love evil are near.They are far from your teachings.
