142 Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,and Your instruction is true.
143 Trouble and distress have overtaken me,but Your commands are my delight.
144 Your decrees are righteous forever. Give me understanding, and I will live.
145 I call with all my heart; answer me, Lord.I will obey Your statutes.
146 I call to You; save me,and I will keep Your decrees.
147 I rise before dawn and cry out for help; I put my hope in Your word.
148 I am awake through each watch of the nightto meditate on Your promise.
