Psalms 119:145 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 119:145

143 Trouble and anguish have¹ overtaken me,
Yet Your commandments are my delights.

144 The righteousness of Your testimonies is everlasting;
Give me understanding, and I shall live.

145 I cry out with my whole heart;
Hear me, O Lord!
I will keep Your statutes.

146 I cry out to You;
Save me, and I will keep Your testimonies.

147 ^aI rise before the dawning of the morning,
And cry for help;
I hope in Your word.

148 ^aMy eyes are awake through the night watches,
That I may meditate on Your word.

149 Hear my voice according to Your lovingkindness;
O Lord, revive me according to Your justice.

150 They draw near who follow after wickedness;
They are far from Your law.

151 You are ^anear, O Lord,
And all Your commandments are truth.

152 Concerning Your testimonies,
I have known of old that You have founded them ^aforever.

153 ^aConsider my affliction and deliver me,
For I do not forget Your law.

154 ^aPlead my cause and redeem me;
Revive me according to Your word.
