170. May my supplication come before you;deliver me according to your promise.
171. May my lips overflow with praise,for you teach me your decrees.
172. May my tongue sing of your word,for all your commands are righteous.
173. May your hand be ready to help me,for I have chosen your precepts.
174. I long for your salvation, Lord,and your law gives me delight.
175. Let me live that I may praise you,and may your laws sustain me.
176. I have strayed like a lost sheep.Seek your servant,for I have not forgotten your commands.
