Psalm 119:145-152 - Qoph
145 Qoph.
I cried with all my heart; answer me, O Lord!
I will observe Your statutes.
I cried to You; save me
And I will keep Your testimonies.
I rise before dawn and cry [in prayer] for help;
I wait for Your word.
My eyes anticipate the night watches and I awake before the call of the watchman,
That I may meditate on Your word.
Hear my voice according to Your [steadfast] lovingkindness;
O Lord, renew and refresh me according to Your ordinances.
Those who follow after wickedness approach;
They are far from Your law.
You are near, O Lord,
And all Your commandments are truth.
Of old I have known from Your testimonies
That You have founded them forever.
