73. Your hands have made me and fashionedme;give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.
74. Those who fear You will be glad when they see me,because I have hoped in Your word.
75. I know, O Lord, that Your judgments are right,and that You in faithfulness have afflicted me.
76. Let Your merciful kindness comfort me,according to Your word to Your servant.
77. Let Your compassion come to me, that I may live,for Your law is my delight.
78. Let the proud be ashamed, for they have been wicked to me in falsehood,but I will meditate on Your precepts.
79. Let those who fear You turn to me,that they might know Your testimonies.
80. Let my heart be blameless in Your statutes,that I may not be ashamed.
81. My soul longs for Your deliverance,but I hope in Your word.
82. My eyes are weary for Your word,saying, “When will You comfort me?”
83. For I have become like a wineskin dried in the smoke,yet I have not forgotten Your statutes.
84. How many days are given to Your servant?When will You provide judgment on those who persecute me?
