129 Your rules are wonderful.
    That is why I keep them.
130 Learning your words gives wisdom
    and understanding for the foolish.
131 I am nearly out of breath.
    I really want to learn your commands.
132 Look at me and have mercy on me
    as you do for those who love you.
133 Guide my steps as you promised;
    don’t let any sin control me.
134 Save me from harmful people
    so I can obey your orders.
135 Show your kindness to me, your servant.
    Teach me your demands.
136 Tears stream from my eyes,
    because people do not obey your teachings.
