153Look at my affliction and rescue me, For I have not forgotten Your Law. 154Plead my cause and redeem me; Revive me according to Your word. 155Salvation is far from the wicked, For they do not seek Your statutes. 156 Great are Your mercies, Lord; Revive me according to Your judgments. 157Many are my persecutors and my enemies, Yet I do not turn aside from Your testimonies. 158I see the treacherous and loathe them, Because they do not keep Your word. 159Consider how I love Your precepts; Revive me, Lord, according to Your faithfulness. 160The sum of Your word is truth, And every one of Your righteous judgments is everlasting. 161Rulers persecute me without cause, But my heart stands in awe of Your words. 162I rejoice at Your word, Like one who finds great plunder. 163I hate and loathe falsehood, But I love Your Law. 164Seven times a day I praise You Because of Your righteous judgments. 165Those who love Your Law have great peace, And nothing causes them to stumble.King James Version

153Look upon my suffering and rescue me, for I have not forgotten your instructions. 154Argue my case; take my side! Protect my life as you promised. 155The wicked are far from rescue, for they do not bother with your decrees. 156Lord, how great is your mercy; let me be revived by following your regulations. 157Many persecute and trouble me, yet I have not swerved from your laws. 158Seeing these traitors makes me sick at heart, because they care nothing for your word. 159See how I love your commandments, Lord. Give back my life because of your unfailing love. 160The very essence of your words is truth; all your just regulations will stand forever.
