Psalms 119:81-88

Kaph.

81 My 1soul languishes for Your salvation; I 2wait for Your word.
82 My 3eyes fail with longing for Your word, While I say, "When will You comfort me?"
83 Though I have 4become like a wineskin in the smoke, I do 5not forget Your statutes.
84 How many are the 6days of Your servant? When will You 7execute judgment on those who persecute me?
85 The arrogant have 8dug pits for me, Men who are not in accord with Your law.
86 All Your commandments are 9faithful; They have 10persecuted me with a lie; 11help me!
87 They almost destroyed me on earth, But as for me, I 12did not forsake Your precepts.
88 Revive me according to Your lovingkindness, So that I may keep the testimony of Your mouth. Lamedh.
