153See my affliction and rescue me, for I have not forgotten your instruction.154Plead my cause and redeem me; give me life according to your word.155Salvation is distant from the wicked, for they have not sought your statutes.156Your mercies are many, O LORD; give me life according to your justice.157Many are my pursuers and my enemies; yet I have not turned aside from your testimonies.158I saw those acting treacherously and loathed them, because they have not kept your word.159See that I have loved your precepts; give me life, O LORD, according to your kindness.160The sum of your word is truth, and all your justice is righteousness forever.
