148 My eyes anticipate the night watches that I might meditate in thy spoken word.
149 Hear my voice according to thy mercy; O Lord, cause me to live according to thy judgment.
150 Those that persecute me draw near unto evil; they have strayed from thy law.
151 Thou art near, O Lord; and all thy commandments are truth.
152 Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever.
153 RESH. Consider my affliction and deliver me; for I have not forgotten thy law.
154 Plead my cause and redeem me; quicken me according to thy spoken word.
