v.161. Princes persecute me without cause, but my heart stands in awe of Your words. v.162. I rejoice at Your word, as one who finds great spoil. v.163. I hate and despise falsehood, but I love Your law. v.164. Seven times a day I praise You, because of Your righteous ordinances. v.165. Those who love Your law have great peace, and nothing causes them to stumble. v.166. I hope for Your salvation, O Lord, and do Your commandments. v.167. My soul keeps Your testimonies, and I love them exceedingly. v.168. I keep Your precepts and Your testimonies, for all my ways are before You. (NAS version)
