The path of the righteous is level;
    (A)you make level the way of the righteous.
In the path of your judgments,
    O Lord, we wait for you;
(B)your name and (C)remembrance
    are the desire of our soul.
My soul yearns for you in the night;
    my spirit within me earnestly seeks you.
(D)For when your judgments are in the earth,
    the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.

But for those who are righteous,
    the way is not steep and rough.
You are a God who does what is right,
    and you smooth out the path ahead of them.
Lord, we show our trust in you by obeying your laws;
    our heart’s desire is to glorify your name.
In the night I search for you;
    in the morning[a] I earnestly seek you.
For only when you come to judge the earth
    will people learn what is right.
