150. Malicious persecutors draw near me;they are far from your law.
151. You are near, O Lord;reliable are all your commandments.
152. Long have I known from your testimoniesthat you have established them forever.
153. Look at my affliction and rescue me,for I have not forgotten your law.
154. Take up my cause and redeem me;for the sake of your promise give me life.
155. Salvation is far from sinnersbecause they do not cherish your statutes.
156. Your compassion is great, O Lord;in accord with your judgments, give me life.
