Psalms 119:81
Compare all
79 Let those who fear You turn to me,
Those who know Your testimonies.
80 Let my heart be blameless regarding Your statutes,
That I may not be ashamed.

ך Kaph

81 aMy soul faints for Your salvation,
But I hope in Your word. 
82 My eyes fail from searching Your word,
Saying, “When will You comfort me?”
83 For aI have become like a wineskin in smoke,
Yet I do not forget Your statutes. 
84 aHow many are the days of Your servant?
bWhen will You execute judgment on those who persecute me? 
85 aThe proud have dug pits for me,
Which is not according to Your law. 
86 All Your commandments are faithful;
They persecute me awrongfully;
Help me! 
87 They almost made an end of me on earth,
But I did not forsake Your precepts.
88 Revive me according to Your lovingkindness,
So that I may keep the testimony of Your mouth.

ל Lamed

89 aForever, O Lord,
Your word1 is settled in heaven. 
90 Your faithfulness endures to all generations;
You established the earth, and it1 abides.

Psalms 119:81

My soul fainteth for thy salvation - I have longed so incessantly after thy salvation - the complete purification and restoration of my soul, that my very spirits are exhausted.

"My heartstrings groan with deep complaint;

My soul lies panting, Lord, for thee;

And every limb and every joint

Stretches for perfect purity."
