<> <ר RESH> Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law. 154 Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word. 155 Salvation [is] far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes. 156 Great [are] thy tender mercies, O LORD: quicken me according to thy judgments. 157 Many [are] my persecutors and mine enemies; [yet] do I not decline from thy testimonies. 158 I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word. 159 Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O LORD, according to thy loving­kindness. 160 Thy word [is] true [from] the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments [endureth] for ever.
