145. I cry out with all my heart:"Lord, answer me so I can guard your statutes!"
146. I cry out to you, "Save meso I can keep your laws!"
147. I meet the predawn light and cry for help.I wait for your promise.
148. My eyes encounter each hour of the nightas I think about your word.
149. Listen to my voice, according to your faithful love.Lord, make me live again, according to your justice.
150. The people who love to plot wicked schemes are nearby,but they are so far from your Instruction!
151. But you, Lord, are nearby too,and all your commandments are true.
152. Long ago I learned from your lawsthat you had established them forever.
153. Look at my suffering and deliver mebecause I haven’t forgotten your Instruction.
154. Argue my case and redeem me.Make me live again by your word.
