- 170 Let my supplication come before You; Deliver me according to Your word.
- 171 Let my lips utter praise, For You teach me Your statutes.
- 172 Let my tongue sing of Your word, For all Your commandments are righteousness.
- 173 Let Your hand be ready to help me, For I have chosen Your precepts.
- 174 I long for Your salvation, O LORD, And Your law is my delight.
- 175 Let my soul live that it may praise You, And let Your ordinances help me.
- 176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek Your servant, For I do not forget Your commandments.
