148 Mine eyes did timeously preventthe watches of the night,That in thy word with careful mindthen meditate I might.
149 After thy loving-kindness hearmy voice, that calls on thee:According to thy judgment, Lord,revive and quicken me.
150 Who follow mischief they draw nigh;they from thy law are far:
151 But thou art near, Lord; most firm truthall thy commandments are.
152 As for thy testimonies all,of old this have I try'd,That thou hast surely founded themfor ever to abide.
153 Consider mine affliction,in safety do me set:Deliver me, O Lord, for Ithy law do not forget.
154 After thy word revive thou me: save me,and plead my cause.
