New Testament

Psalm 118:81-94 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

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.

84. How many are the days of your servant? When will you bring judgment against those who persecute me?

85. The iniquitous have spoken fables to me. But these are unlike your law.

86. All your commandments are truth. They have been persecuting me unjustly: assist me.

87. They have nearly consumed me on earth. Yet I have not forsaken your commandments.

88. Revive me according to your mercy. And I will keep the testimonies of your mouth.

89. LAMED. O Lord, your word remains firm in heaven, for all eternity.

90. Your truth is from generation to generation. You have founded the earth, and it remains firm.

91. By your ordinance, the day perseveres. For all things are in service to you.

92. If your law had not been my meditation, then perhaps I would have perished in my humiliation.

93. I will not forget your justifications, for eternity. For by them, you have enlivened me.

94. I am yours. Accomplish my salvation. For I have inquired into your justifications.
