Psalms 119:75-96

⁷⁵Yahweh, I know that ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us► are right/fair and that you have afflicted/punished me because you faithfully do what you have promised.

⁷⁶Cause me to be comforted/encouraged by knowing that you faithfully love me, like you said to me that you would do.

⁷⁷Be merciful to me in order that I may continue to live, because I am delighted with your laws.

⁷⁸Cause the proud people who falsely accuse me to be ashamed, but as for me, I will continue ◄meditating on/thinking about► ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

⁷⁹Cause those who revere you to come back to me in order that they may (OR, specifically, those who) know ◄your requirements/what you have instructed us to do►.

⁸⁰Enable me to perfectly obey ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do► in order that I may not be ashamed because of not doing that.

⁸¹I am very tired/exhausted while I wait for you to save me from my enemies; but I confidently expect that you will tell me what you will do.

⁸²My eyes are tired from waiting a long time for you to do what you promised/said that you would do, and I ask, “When will you help/encourage me?”

⁸³I have become as useless as MET a wineskin that is shriveled from hanging a long time in the smoke inside a house, but I have not forgotten ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do►.

⁸⁴How long must I wait? When will you punish those who ◄persecute/cause trouble for► me?

⁸⁵It is as though proud people have dug deep pits for me to fall into, people who do not obey your laws.

⁸⁶All ◄your commands are/what you have commanded is► trustworthy; but people are ◄persecuting/causing trouble for► me by telling lies about me, so please help me!

⁸⁷Those people have almost killed me, but I have not stopped obeying ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

⁸⁸Because you faithfully love me, allow me to continue to live in order that I may continue to obey ◄your rules/what you have instructed us to do►.

⁸⁹Yahweh, your words will last forever; they will last as long as heaven lasts.

⁹⁰You will faithfully continue doing ◄ for people who are not yet born/in every generation► what you have ◄promised/said that you would do►; you have put the earth in its place, and it remains firmly there.

⁹¹To this day, all things on the earth remain because you decided that they should remain; everything on the earth serves you.

⁹²If I had not been delighted in obeying your laws, I would have died because of what I was suffering.

⁹³I will never forget ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►, because as a result of my obeying them you have enabled me to continue to live.

⁹⁴I belong to you; save/rescue me from my enemies, because I have tried to obey ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

⁹⁵Wicked men are waiting to kill me, but I will think about /what you have instructed us to do.

⁹⁶I have learned that there is a limit/end for everything, but what you command ◄has no limits/never ends►.
