77 Let your compassion draw near to me, and I will live. For your law is my meditation.
78 Let the arrogant be confounded, for unjustly they have done iniquity to me. But I will be trained in your commandments.
79 Let those who fear you turn to me, along with those who know your testimonies.
80 Let my heart be immaculate in your justifications, so that I may not be confounded.
81 CAPH. My soul has faltered in your salvation, yet in your word, I have hoped beyond hope.
82 My eyes have failed in your eloquence, saying, "When will you console me?"
83 For I have become like a wineskin in the frost. I have not forgotten your justifications.
