153  Consider mine afflïction,
        in safety do me set:
     Deliver me, O Lord, for I
        thy law do not forget.
154  After thy word revive thou me:
        save me, and plead my cause.
155  Salvation is from sinners far;
        for they seek not thy laws.

156  O Lord, both great and manifold
        thy tender mercies be:
     According to thy judgments just,
        revive and quicken me.
157  My persecutors many are,
        and foes that do combine;
     Yet from thy testimonies pure
        my heart doth not decline.

158  I saw transgressors, and was grieved;
        for they keep not thy word.
159  See how I love thy law! as thou
        art kind, me quicken, Lord.
160  From the beginning all thy word
        hath been most true and sure:
     Thy righteous judgments ev'ry one
        for evermore endure.
