Psalms 119:169-176

169O Lord, listen to my cry; give me the discerning mind you promised.

170Listen to my prayer; rescue me as you promised.

171Let praise flow from my lips, for you have taught me your decrees.

172Let my tongue sing about your word, for all your commands are right.

173Give me a helping hand, for I have chosen to follow your commandments.

174O Lord, I have longed for your rescue, and your instructions are my delight.

175Let me live so I can praise you, and may your regulations help me.

176I have wandered away like a lost sheep; come and find me, for I have not forgotten your commands.
