152 Long ago I learned from your written instructionsthat you made them to last forever.
153 Look at my misery, and rescue me,because I have never forgotten your teachings.
154 Plead my case ⌊for me⌋, and save me.Give me a new life as you promised.
155 Wicked people are far from being saved,because they have not searched for your laws.
156 Your acts of compassion are many in number, O Lord.Give me a new life guided by your regulations.
157 I have many persecutors and opponents,⌊yet⌋ I have not turned away from your written instructions.
158 I have seen traitors,and I am filled with disgust.They have not accepted your promise.
