KOPH: Urgent Prayer and Early Morning Meditation

Psalms 119:145-152

145

(Kuf) Wholeheartedly I am calling on you; answer me, ADONAI; I will keep your laws.

146

I am calling on you; save me; and I will observe your instruction.

147

I rise before dawn and cry for help; I put my hope in your word.

148

My eyes are open before the night watches, so that I can meditate on your promise.

149

In your grace, hear my voice; ADONAI, in keeping with your justice, revive me.

150

The pursuers of carnality are getting close; they are distancing themselves from your Torah.

151

You are close by, ADONAI; and all your mitzvot are truth.

152

Long ago I learned from your instruction that you established it forever.
