Psalm 119 (NIV): ק Qoph - ר Resh

...LISTEN...

   ק Qoph
 145 I call with all my heart; answer me, O LORD,
   and I will obey your decrees.
146 I call out to you; save me
   and I will keep your statutes.
147 I rise before dawn and cry for help;
   I have put my hope in your word.
148 My eyes stay open through the watches of the night,
   that I may meditate on your promises.
149 Hear my voice in accordance with your love;
   preserve my life, O LORD, according to your laws.
150 Those who devise wicked schemes are near,
   but they are far from your law.
151 Yet you are near, O LORD,
   and all your commands are true.
152 Long ago I learned from your statutes
   that you established them to last forever.

   ר Resh
 153 Look upon my suffering and deliver me,
   for I have not forgotten your law.
154 Defend my cause and redeem me;
   preserve my life according to your promise.
155 Salvation is far from the wicked,
   for they do not seek out your decrees.
156 Your compassion is great, O LORD;
   preserve my life according to your laws.
157 Many are the foes who persecute me,
   but I have not turned from your statutes.
158 I look on the faithless with loathing,
   for they do not obey your word.
159 See how I love your precepts;
   preserve my life, O LORD, according to your love.
160 All your words are true;
   all your righteous laws are eternal.
