83 Though I am like a wineskin dried up by smoke, I do not forget Your statutes.
84 How many days must Your servant wait? When will You execute judgment on my persecutors?

86 All Your commandments are faithful; I am persecuted without cause—help me!
87 They almost wiped me from the earth, but I have not forsaken Your precepts.
88 Revive me according to Your loving devotion, that I may obey the testimony of Your mouth.
