123. My eyes are tired from watching for your saving help,for the deliverance you promised.

124. Treat me according to your constant love,and teach me your commands.

125. I am your servant; give me understanding,so that I may know your teachings.

126. Lord, it is time for you to act,because people are disobeying your law.

133. As you have promised, keep me from falling;don't let me be overcome by evil.

134. Save me from those who oppress me,so that I may obey your commands.
