Psalms 119:81-87

⁸¹CAPH My soul is wasted with desire for your salvation: but I have hope in your word.

⁸²My eyes are full of weariness with searching for your word, saying, When will you give me comfort?

⁸³For I have become like a wine-skin black with smoke; but I still keep the memory of your rules.

⁸⁴How short is the life of your servant! when will you give your decision against those who are attacking me?

⁸⁵The men of pride, who are turned away from your law, have put nets for me.

⁸⁶All your teachings are certain; they go after me with evil design; give me your help.

⁸⁷They had almost put an end to me on earth; but I did not give up your orders.
