⁸² My eyes fail for your word. I say, "When will you comfort me?"

³ I am weary with my crying. My throat is dry. My eyes fail, looking for my God.

¹²³ My eyes fail looking for your salvation, For your righteous word.

³² Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another people; and your eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the day: and there shall be nothing in the power of your hand.

¹⁷ Show me a sign of your goodness, That those who hate me may see it, and be shamed, Because you, Yahweh, have helped me, and comforted me.

¹³ Relent, Yahweh! How long? Have compassion on your servants!

¹⁴ Satisfy us in the morning with your loving kindness, That we may rejoice and be glad all our days.

¹⁵ Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, For as many years as we have seen evil.

¹² Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when longing is fulfilled, it is a tree of life.

¹¹ I said, I shall not see Yah, Yah in the land of the living: I shall see man no more with the inhabitants of the world.

¹¹ My eyes do fail with tears, my heart is troubled; My liver is poured on the earth, because of the destruction of the daughter of my people, Because the young children and the infants swoon in the streets of the city.
