Psalms 119:76-83

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►.
