10 With my whole heart I have (A)sought You;
Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
11 (B)Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.
12 Blessed are You, O Lord!
Teach me Your statutes.
13 With my lips I have (C)declared
All the judgments of Your mouth.
14 I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
As much as in all riches.
15 I will meditate on Your precepts,
And [a]contemplate Your ways.
16 I will (D)delight myself in Your statutes;
I will not forget Your word.

ג GIMEL

17 (E)Deal bountifully with Your servant,
That I may live and keep Your word.
18 Open my eyes, that I may see
Wondrous things from Your law.
19 (F)I am a stranger in the earth;
Do not hide Your commandments from me.
20 (G)My soul [b]breaks with longing
For Your judgments at all times.
21 You rebuke the proud—the cursed,
Who stray from Your commandments.
22 (H)Remove from me reproach and contempt,
For I have kept Your testimonies.
23 Princes also sit and speak against me,
But Your servant meditates on Your statutes.
24 Your testimonies also are my delight
And my counselors.

ד DALETH

25 (I)My soul clings to the dust;
(J)Revive me according to Your word.
26 I have declared my ways, and You answered me;
(K)Teach me Your statutes.
27 Make me understand the way of Your precepts;
So (L)shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.
28 (M)My soul [c]melts from [d]heaviness;
Strengthen me according to Your word.
