169. TAU. O Lord, let my supplication draw near in your sight. Grant understanding to me according to your eloquence.
170. Let my petition enter before you. Rescue me according to your word.
171. A hymn will burst forth from my lips, when you will teach me your justifications.
172. My tongue will pronounce your eloquence. For all your commandments are fairness.
173. Let it be your hand that saves me. For I have chosen your commandments.
174. O Lord, I have longed for your salvation, and your law is my meditation.
175. My soul will live and will praise you, and your judgments will assist me.
176. I have gone astray like a sheep that is lost. Seek out your servant, for I have not forgotten your commandments.
