147. I rise before dawn and cry for help;I hope in your words.
148. My eyes are awake before the watches of the night,that I may meditate on your promise.
149. Hear my voice according to your steadfast love;O Lord, according to your justice give me life.
150. They draw near who persecute me with evil purpose;they are far from your law.
151. But you are near, O Lord,and all your commandments are true.
