142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and thy law is truth.
143 Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delight.
144 Thy testimonies are righteous for ever: give me understanding, and I shall live.
145 I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O LORD: I will keep thy statutes.
146 I have called unto thee; save me, and I shall observe thy testimonies.
147 I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried: I hoped in thy words.
148 Mine eyes prevented the night watches, that I might meditate in thy word.
