Psalm 119:145-160

Authorized (King James) Version

¹⁴⁵ I cried with my whole heart;
hear me, O Lord: I will keep thy statutes.
¹⁴⁶ I cried unto thee; save me,
and I shall keep thy testimonies.
¹⁴⁷ I prevented the dawning of the morning, and cried:
I hoped in thy word.
¹⁴⁸ Mine eyes prevent the night watches,
that I might meditate in thy word.
¹⁴⁹ Hear my voice according unto thy lovingkindness:
O Lord, quicken me according to thy judgment.
¹⁵⁰ They draw nigh that follow after mischief:
they are far from thy law.
¹⁵¹ Thou art near, O Lord;
and all thy commandments are truth.
¹⁵² Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old
that thou hast founded them for ever.

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.
