⁸²Mine eyes fail for thy *word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?

⁸³For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; I do not forget thy statutes.

⁸⁴How many shall be the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?

⁸⁵The proud have digged pits for me, which is not according to thy law.

⁸⁶All thy commandments are faithfulness. They persecute me wrongfully: help thou me.

⁸⁷They had almost consumed me upon the earth; but as for me, I forsook not thy precepts.

⁸⁸Quicken me according to thy loving-kindness, and I will keep the testimony of thy mouth.

⁸⁹LAMED. For ever, O Jehovah, thy word is settled in the heavens.

⁹⁰Thy faithfulness is from generation to generation: thou hast established the earth, and it standeth.

⁹¹By thine ordinances they stand this day; for all things are thy servants.

⁹²Unless thy law had been my delight, I should then have perished in mine affliction.

⁹³I will never forget thy precepts; for by them thou hast quickened me.

⁹⁴I am thine, save me; for I have sought thy precepts.

⁹⁵The wicked have awaited me to destroy me; but I attend unto thy testimonies.

⁹⁶I have seen an end of all perfection: thy commandment is exceeding broad.

⁹⁷MEM. Oh how I love thy law! it is my meditation all the day.

⁹⁸Thy commandments make me wiser than mine enemies; for they are ever with me.

⁹⁹I have more understanding than all my teachers; for thy testimonies are my meditation.

¹⁰⁰I understand more than the aged, because I have observed thy precepts.

¹⁰¹I have refrained my feet from every evil path, that I might keep thy word.

¹⁰²I have not departed from thy judgments; for it is thou that hast taught me.

¹⁰³How sweet are thy *words unto my taste! more than honey to my mouth!

¹⁰⁴From thy precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false path.

¹⁰⁵NUN. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

¹⁰⁶I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.

¹⁰⁷I am afflicted very much; O Jehovah, quicken me according to thy word.

¹⁰⁸Accept, I beseech thee, Jehovah, the voluntary-offerings of my mouth, and teach me thy judgments.

¹⁰⁹My life is continually in my hand; but I do not forget thy law.

¹¹⁰The wicked have laid a snare for me; but I have not wandered from thy precepts.

¹¹¹Thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage for ever; for they are the rejoicing of my heart.

¹¹²I have inclined my heart to perform thy statutes for ever, unto the end.

¹¹³SAMECH. The double-minded have I hated; but thy law do I love.

¹¹⁴Thou art my hiding-place and my shield: I hope in thy word.

¹¹⁵Depart from me, ye evil-doers; and I will observe the commandments of my God.

¹¹⁶Uphold me according to thy *word, that I may live; and let me not be ashamed of my hope.

¹¹⁷Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe; and I will have respect unto thy statutes continually.

¹¹⁸Thou hast set at nought all them that wander from thy statutes; for their deceit is falsehood.

¹¹⁹Thou puttest away all the wicked of the earth like dross; therefore I love thy testimonies.

¹²⁰My flesh shuddereth for fear of thee; and I am afraid of thy judgments.

¹²¹AIN. I have done judgment and justice: leave me not to mine oppressors.

¹²²Be surety for thy servant for good; let not the proud oppress me.

¹²³Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, and for the *word of thy righteousness.

¹²⁴Deal with thy servant according to thy loving-kindness, and teach me thy statutes.

¹²⁵I am thy servant; give me understanding that I may know thy testimonies.

¹²⁶It is time for Jehovah to work: they have made void thy law.

¹²⁷Therefore I love thy commandments above gold, yea, above fine gold.

¹²⁸Therefore I regard all thy precepts concerning all things to be right: I hate every false path.

¹²⁹PE. Thy testimonies are wonderful; therefore doth my soul observe them.

¹³⁰The entrance of thy words giveth light, giving understanding unto the simple.

¹³¹I opened my mouth wide and panted; for I longed for thy commandments.

¹³²Turn unto me, and be gracious unto me, as thou art wont to do unto those that love thy name.

¹³³Establish my steps in thy *word; and let not any iniquity have dominion over me.

¹³⁴Deliver me from the oppression of man; and I will keep thy precepts.

¹³⁵Make thy face to shine upon thy servant, and teach me thy statutes.

¹³⁶Mine eyes run down with streams of water, because they keep not thy law.

¹³⁷TZADE. Righteous art thou, Jehovah, and upright are thy judgments.
