75. I know, Hashem, Thy mishpatim are tzedek, and Thou in emunah (faithfulness) hast afflicted me.
76. Let now Thy chesed be for my comfort, according to Thy word unto Thy eved.
77. Let Thy rachamim come unto me, that I may live: for Thy torah is my delight.
78. Let the zedim (arrogant ones) be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate on Thy pikkudim (percepts).
79. Let those that fear Thee turn unto me, and those that have known Thy edot.
80. Let my lev be tamim (blameless, complete) in Thy chukkot; that I be not ashamed.
81. My nefesh fainteth for Thy salvation: but I hope in Thy davar.
82. Mine eyes fail for Thy word saying, Mosai (when) wilt Thou comfort me?
83. For I am become like a wineskin in the smoke; yet do I not forget Thy chukkot.
84. How many are the days of Thy eved? Mosai (when) wilt Thou execute mishpat on them that persecute me?
85. The zedim (arrogant ones) have dug pits for me, which are not in accordance with Thy torah.
