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 statutesthat you established them to last for ever.
153. Look on my suffering and deliver me,for I have not forgotten your law.
154. Defend my cause and redeem me;preserve my life according to your promise.
