144 Your testimonies are righteous forever; Give me understanding that I may live.
145 I cried with all my heart; answer me, O Lord! I will observe Your statutes.
146 I cried to You; save me And I shall keep Your testimonies.
147 I rise before dawn and cry for help; I wait for Your words.
148 My eyes anticipate the night watches, That I may meditate on Your word.
149 Hear my voice according to Your lovingkindness; Revive me, O Lord, according to Your ordinances.
150 Those who follow after wickedness draw near; They are far from Your law.
