Psalms 119:141-155 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

141. I am small and despised, Yet I do not forget Your precepts.

142. Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, And Your law is truth.

143. Trouble and anguish have come upon me, Yet Your commandments are my delight.

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

145. I cried with all my heart; answer me, O Lord! I will observe Your statutes.

146. I cried to You; save me And I shall keep Your testimonies.

147. I rise before dawn and cry for help; I wait for Your words.

148. My eyes anticipate the night watches, That I may meditate on Your word.

149. Hear my voice according to Your lovingkindness; Revive me, O Lord, according to Your ordinances.

150. Those who follow after wickedness draw near; They are far from Your law.

151. You are near, O Lord, And all Your commandments are truth.

152. Of old I have known from Your testimonies That You have founded them forever.

153. Look upon my affliction and rescue me, For I do not forget Your law.

154. 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.
