Psalms 119:85

Compare all

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.
