justifications.
118:146. I cried unto thee, save me: that I may keep thy commandments.
118:147. I prevented the dawning of the day, and cried: because in thy
words I very much hoped.
118:148. My eyes to thee have prevented the morning: that I might
meditate on thy words.
118:149. Hear thou my voice, O Lord, according to thy mercy: and
quicken me according to thy judgment.
118:150. They that persecute me have drawn nigh to iniquity; but they
are gone far off from thy law.
118:151. Thou art near, O Lord: and all thy ways are truth.
118:152. I have known from the beginning concerning thy testimonies:
that thou hast founded them for ever.
