150 Lawless people are coming to attack me;they live far from your instructions.
151 But you are near, O lord,and all your commands are true.
152 I have known from my earliest daysthat your laws will last forever.
153 Look upon my suffering and rescue me,for I have not forgotten your instructions.
154 Argue my case; take my side!Protect my life as you promised.
155 The wicked are far from rescue,for they do not bother with your decrees.
156 lord, how great is your mercy;let me be revived by following your regulations.
