138 You have set Your testimonies in righteousnessand faithfulness.
139 My zeal has consumed me,because my enemies have forgotten Your words.
140 Your word is pure and true;therefore Your servant loves it.
141 I am small and despised,yet I do not forget Your precepts.
142 Your righteousness is an everlasting righteousness,and Your law is true.
143 Trouble and anguish have discovered me,but Your commandments are my delight.
144 The righteousness of Your testimonies is everlasting;grant me understanding, and I shall live.
