138 Thou hast appointed Thy testimonies, Righteous and exceeding faithful,
139 Cut me off hath my zeal, For mine adversaries forgot Thy words.
140 Tried [is] thy saying exceedingly, And Thy servant hath loved it.
141 Small I [am], and despised, Thy precepts I have not forgotten.
142 Thy righteousness [is] righteousness to the age, And Thy law [is] truth.
143 Adversity and distress have found me, Thy commands [are] my delights.
144 The righteousness of Thy testimonies [is] to Cause me to understand, and I live!
