78. Proud people have treated me badly without any reason. May they be put to shame. I will spend time thinking about your rules.
79. May those who have respect for you come to me. Then I can teach them your covenant laws.
80. May my heart be without blame as I follow your orders. Then I won't be put to shame.
81. I deeply long for you to save me. I have put my hope in your word.
82. My eyes grow tired looking for what you have promised. I say, "When will you comfort me?"
83. I'm as useless as a wineskin that smoke has dried up. But I don't forget to follow your orders.
84. How long do I have to wait? When will you punish those who attack me?
85. Proud people do what is against your law. They dig pits for me to fall into.
86. All of your commands can be trusted. Help me, because people attack me without any reason.
87. They almost wiped me off the face of the earth. But I have not turned away from your rules.
