135
Look upon me with love;
teach me your decrees.
136
Rivers of tears gush from my eyes
because people disobey your instructions.
143
As pressure and stress bear down on me,
I find joy in your commands.
144
Your laws are always right;
help me to understand them so I may live.
As pressure and stress bear down we can find joy in God's Word.
