153 Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.

154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word.

155 Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes.

156 Great are thy tender mercies, O Lord: quicken me according to thy judgments.

157 Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies.

158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word.

159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O Lord, according to thy lovingkindness.

160 Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

Resh

153 Mira mi aflicción, y líbrame,

Porque de tu ley no me he olvidado.

154 Defiende mi causa, y redímeme;

Vivifícame con tu palabra.

155 Lejos está de los impíos la salvación,

Porque no buscan tus estatutos.

156 Muchas son tus misericordias, oh Jehová;

Vivifícame conforme a tus juicios.

157 Muchos son mis perseguidores y mis enemigos,

Mas de tus testimonios no me he apartado.

158 Veía a los prevaricadores, y me disgustaba,

Porque no guardaban tus palabras.

159 Mira, oh Jehová, que amo tus mandamientos;

Vivifícame conforme a tu misericordia.

160 La suma de tu palabra es verdad,

Y eterno es todo juicio de tu justicia.
