Psalm 119:147-153

English Standard Version

¹⁴⁷ I rise before ^(A)dawn and cry for help;
    I ^(B)hope in your words.
¹⁴⁸ My eyes are awake before ^(C)the watches of the night,
    that I may meditate on your promise.
¹⁴⁹ Hear my voice according to your steadfast love;
    O Lord, ^(D)according to your justice ^(E)give me life.
¹⁵⁰ They draw near who persecute me with evil purpose;
    they are far from your law.
¹⁵¹ But ^(F)you are near, O Lord,
    and all your commandments are ^(G)true.
¹⁵² Long have I known from your testimonies
    that you have ^(H)founded them forever.

¹⁵³ Look on my ^(I)affliction and deliver me,
    for ^(J)I do not forget your law.
