Psalms 119:79-85
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 119
79May those who fear You turn to me, And those who know Your testimonies. 80May my heart be blameless in Your statutes, So that I will not be ashamed. 81My soul languishes for Your salvation; I wait for Your word. 82My eyes fail with longing for Your word, While I say, 'When will You comfort me?' 83Though I have become like a wineskin in the smoke, I do not forget Your statutes. 84How many are the days of Your servant? When will You execute judgment on those who persecute me? 85The arrogant have dug pits for me, People who are not in accord with Your Law.King James Version
Christian Standard Bible

79Let those who fear you, those who know your decrees, turn to me. 80May my heart be blameless regarding your statutes so that I will not be put to shame. 81I long for your salvation; I put my hope in your word. 82My eyes grow weary looking for what you have promised; I ask, "When will you comfort me? " 83Though I have become like a wineskin dried by smoke, I do not forget your statutes. 84How many days must your servant wait? When will you execute judgment on my persecutors? 85The arrogant have dug pits for me; they violate your instruction.New Living Translation
Chapter 119
79Let me be united with all who fear you, with those who know your laws. 80May I be blameless in keeping your decrees; then I will never be ashamed.
81I am worn out waiting for your rescue, but I have put my hope in your word.
82My eyes are straining to see your promises come true. When will you comfort me?
83I am shriveled like a wineskin in the smoke, but I have not forgotten to obey your decrees.
84How long must I wait? When will you punish those who persecute me?
85These arrogant people who hate your instructions have dug deep pits to trap me.
