75. I know, O Lord, that thy judgments are right and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.
76. Let, I pray thee, thy mercy be for my comfort, according to thy spoken word unto thy slave.
77. Let thy mercy come unto me, that I may live, for thy law is my delight.
78. Let the proud be ashamed, for they dealt perversely with me without a cause, but I will meditate in thy precepts.
79. Let those that fear thee turn unto me and those that have known thy testimonies.
80. Let my heart be perfect in thy statutes that I not be ashamed.
81. CAPH. My soul faints with desire for thy salvation as I await thy word.
82. Mine eyes fail for thy spoken word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
83. For I am become like a wine skin in the smoke; yet I have not forgotten thy statutes.
84. How many are the days of thy slave? When wilt thou execute judgment on those that persecute me?
85. The proud have dug pits for me, but they do not proceed according to thy law.
86. All thy commandments are of the same truth; they persecute me wrongfully; help me.
