Princes have persecuted me without a cause: but my heart standeth in awe of thy word.
162 I am as glad of thy word: as one that findeth great spoils.
163 As for lies, I hate and abhor them: but thy law do I love.
164 Seven times a day do I praise thee: because of thy righteous judgements.
165 Great is the peace that they have who love thy law: and they are not offended at it.
166 Lord, I have looked for thy saving health: and done after thy commandments.
167 My soul hath kept thy testimonies: and loved them exceedingly.
168 I have kept thy commandments and testimonies: for all my ways are before thee.
Appropinquet deprecatio.
Let my complaint come before thee, O Lord: give me understanding, according to thy word.
