QOPH
I pray with all my heart; answer me, LORD! I will obey your decrees.
I cry out to you; rescue me,
that I may obey your laws.
I rise early, before the sun is up;
I cry out for help and put my hope in your words.
I stay awake through the night,
thinking about your promise.
In your faithful love, O LORD, hear my cry;
let me be revived by following your regulations.
Lawless people are coming to attack me;
they live far from your instructions.
But you are near, O LORD,
and all your commands are true.
I have known from my earliest days
that your laws will last forever.
Lawless people are coming to attack me; they live far from your instructions.

I waited patiently for the LORD to help me,

But you are near, O LORD, and all your commands are true.

The LORD is close to the brokenhearted;
he rescues those whose spirits are crushed. (see all Psalm 34)

Who will dare to bring charges against me now?
Where are my accusers?
Let them appear! (see all Isaiah 50)
