82My eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
83For I am become like a bottle in the smoke; yet I do not forget thy statutes.
84How many are the days of thy servant? when wilt thou execute judgment on them that persecute me?
85The proud have digged pits for me, which are not according to thy law.
86All thy commandments are faithful: they persecute me wrongfully; help thou me.
87They had almost consumed me upon earth; but I forsook not thy precepts.
88Revive me after thy loving-kindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.

124Deal with thy servant according to thy mercy, and teach me thy statutes.
125I am thy servant; give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies.
126It is time for thee , LORD, to work: for they have made void thy law.
