139 My zeal has caused me to pine away, because my enemies have forgotten your words.
140 Your eloquence has been greatly enflamed, and your servant has loved it.
141 I am young and treated with contempt. But I have not forgotten your justifications.
142 Your justice is justice for all eternity, and your law is truth.
143 Tribulation and anguish have found me. Your commandments are my meditation.
144 Your testimonies are fairness unto eternity. Give me understanding, and I will live.
145 COPH. I cried out with my whole heart. Heed me, O Lord. I will ask for your justifications.
