סק Qoph

I call with all my heart; answer me, Lord,
    and I will obey your decrees.

146 

I call out to you; save me
    and I will keep your statutes.

147 

I rise before dawn and cry for help;
    I have put my hope in your word.

148 

My eyes stay open through the watches of the night,
    that I may meditate on your promises.

149 

Hear my voice in accordance with your love;
    preserve my life, Lord, according to your laws.

150 

Those who devise wicked schemes are near,
    but they are far from your law.

151 

Yet you are near, Lord,
    and all your commands are true.

152 

Long ago I learned from your statutes
    that you established them to last for ever.

Salvation is far from the wicked,
    for they do not seek out your decrees.

156 

Your compassion, Lord, is great;
    preserve my life according to your laws.

157 

Many are the foes who persecute me,
    but I have not turned from your statutes.

158 

I look on the faithless with loathing,
    for they do not obey your word.

159 

See how I love your precepts;
    preserve my life, Lord, in accordance with your love.

160 

All your words are true;
    all your righteous laws are eternal.

Psalm 119 

Verses 129-144

פ Pe

Your statutes are wonderful;
    therefore I obey them.

130 

The unfolding of your words gives light;
    it gives understanding to the simple.

Turn to me and have mercy on me,
    as you always do to those who love your name.

133 

Direct my footsteps according to your word;
    let no sin rule over me.

    and teach me your decrees.

136 

Streams of tears flow from my eyes,
    for your law is not obeyed.

צ Tsadhe

137 

You are righteous, Lord,
    and your laws are right.

138 

The statutes you have laid down are righteous;
    they are fully trustworthy.

139 

My zeal wears me out,
    for my enemies ignore your words.

140 

Your promises have been thoroughly tested,
    and your servant loves them.

141 

Though I am lowly and despised,
    I do not forget your precepts.

142 

Your righteousness is everlasting
    and your law is true.

143 

Trouble and distress have come upon me,
    but your commands give me delight.

144 

Your statutes are always righteous;
    give me understanding that I may live.
