Psalms 119:176

I have gone astray like a lost (dying, stray) sheep.
Come seek your servant,
for I have not forgotten your commandments (Hebr. mitzvot).
[Most of the verses in this long psalm are composed of 5-7 words. The last verse (verse 176) is the longest with a total of 9 words, spread over three lines instead of the usual two. This gives extra weight to the conclusion. The psalmist realizes that he is like a lost sheep, or more literally a "dying" sheep, completely dependent on God's mercy.]
