150. They draw close, those who persecute me with evil;they are far from Your law.
151. But You are near, O Lord,and all Your commandments are true.
152. I have known of oldthat You have established Your testimonies forever.
153. Consider my affliction, and deliver me,for I do not forget Your law.
154. Plead my cause, and defend me;revive me according to Your word.
155. Salvation is far from the wicked,for they do not seek Your statutes.
156. Great are Your compassions, O Lord;revive me according to Your judgments.
157. Many are my persecutors and my enemies,yet I do not turn from Your testimonies.
158. I behold the transgressors with disgust,because they have not kept Your word.
159. Consider how I love Your precepts;revive me, O Lord, according to Your lovingkindness.
160. Your word is true from the beginning,and every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever.
161. Princes have persecuted me without a cause,but my heart stands in awe of Your words.
162. I rejoice at Your word,as one who finds great plunder.
