80Let my heart be sound in your statutes, that I may not be put to shame.
81My long for you to rescue me, I put my hope in your word.
82My eyes pine away for your promise: saying, “When will you comfort me?”
83Though shrivelled like wine-skin in smoke, your statutes I have not forgotten.
84How few are the days of your servant! When will you judge those who harass me?
85Proud people have dug for me pits people who do not conform to your law.
86All your commandments are trusty. With falsehood they harass me: help me.
87They had nearly made an end of me, yet I did not forget your precepts.
88Spare me in your kindness, and I will observe the charge of your mouth.
89Forever, O Lord, is your word fixed firmly in the heavens.
90Your truth endures age after age; it is established on earth, and it stands.
91By your appointment they stand this day, for all are your servants.
92Had not your law been my joy, in my misery then had I perished.
93I will never forget your precepts, for through them you have put life in me.
94I am yours, O save me, for I give my mind to your precepts.
