170. Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.
171. Let my lips utter praise; for thou teachest me thy statutes.
172. Let my tongue sing of thy word; for all thy commandments are righteousness.
173. Let thine hand be ready to help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.
174. I have longed for thy salvation, O Lord; and thy law is my delight.
175. Let my soul live, and it shall praise thee; and let thy judgments help me.
176. I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.
