172 My leshon shall speak of Thy word; for all Thy mitzvot are tzedek.
173 Let Thine Yad help me; for I have chosen Thy pikkudim.
174 I have longed for Thy Yeshuah (salvation), Hashem; and Thy torah is my delight.
175 Let my nefesh live, and it shall praise Thee; and let Thy mishpatim sustain me.
176 I have gone astray like a seh oved (lost sheep); seek Thy eved; for I do not forget Thy mitzvot.
