139. My zeal hath consumed me, Because mine adversaries have forgotten thy words.
140. Thy word is very pure; Therefore thy servant loveth it.
141. I am small and despised; Yet do I not forget thy precepts.
142. Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, And thy law is truth.
143. Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me; Yet thy commandments are my delight.
144. Thy testimonies are righteous for ever: Give me understanding, and I shall live.
145. I have called with my whole heart; answer me, O Jehovah: I will keep thy statutes.
