76 Que ta bonté soit ma consolation, Comme tu l’as promis à ton serviteur!

77 Que tes compassions viennent sur moi, pour que je vive! Car ta loi fait mes délices.

78 Qu’ils soient confondus, les orgueilleux qui m’oppriment sans cause! Moi, je médite sur tes ordonnances.

79 Qu’ils reviennent à moi, ceux qui te craignent, Et ceux qui connaissent tes préceptes!

80 Que mon cœur soit sincère dans tes statuts, Afin que je ne sois pas couvert de honte!
