81 I long for you to rescue me!

Your word is my only hope.

82 I am worn out from waiting

for you to keep your word.

When will you have mercy?

83 My life is wasting away

like a dried-up wineskin,

f 119.83 a dried-up wineskin: The Hebrew text has “a wineskin in the smoke.” In ancient times bags were made from animal skins to hold wine, but when the bags dried up they cracked and could no longer be used.

but I have not forgotten

your teachings.

84 I am your servant!

How long must I suffer?

When will you punish

those troublemakers?

85 Those proud people reject

your teachings,

and they dig pits

for me to fall in.

86 Your laws can be trusted!

Protect me from cruel liars.

87 They have almost killed me,

but I have been faithful

to your teachings.

88 Show that you love me

and let me live,

so that I may obey all

of your commands.
