153  Look on my ^caffliction and deliver me,

for ^dI do not forget your law.

154  ^ePlead my cause and redeem me;

^fgive me life according to your promise!

155  ^gSalvation is far from the wicked,

^hfor they do not seek your statutes.

156  ⁱGreat is your mercy, O Lord;

^fgive me life according to your rules.

157  ^jMany are my persecutors and my adversaries,

but I do not ^kswerve from your testimonies.

158  I look at ^lthe faithless with ^mdisgust,

because they do not keep your commands.

159  Consider how I ⁿlove your precepts!

^fGive me life according to your steadfast love.

160  ^oThe sum of your word is ^ptruth,

and every one of your ^qrighteous rules endures forever.
