ג GIMEL

17 (A)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 (B)I am a stranger in the earth;
Do not hide Your commandments from me.
20 (C)My soul [a]breaks with longing
For Your judgments at all times.
21 You rebuke the proud—the cursed,
Who stray from Your commandments.
22 (D)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 (E)My soul clings to the dust;
(F)Revive me according to Your word.
26 I have declared my ways, and You answered me;
(G)Teach me Your statutes.
27 Make me understand the way of Your precepts;
So (H)shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.
28 (I)My soul [b]melts from [c]heaviness;
Strengthen me according to Your word.
29 Remove from me the way of lying,
And grant me Your law graciously.
30 I have chosen the way of truth;
Your judgments I have laid before me.
31 I cling to Your testimonies;
O Lord, do not put me to shame!
32 I will run the course of Your commandments,
For You shall (J)enlarge my heart.
