ג (Gimel)

17 Be kind to your servant!

Then I will live and keep your instructions.

18 Open my eyes so I can truly see

the marvelous things in your law!

19 I am like a foreigner in this land.

Do not hide your commands from me!

20 I desperately long to know

your regulations at all times.

21 You reprimand arrogant people.

Those who stray from your commands are doomed.

22 Spare me shame and humiliation,

for I observe your rules.

23 Though rulers plot and slander me,

your servant meditates on your statutes.

24 Yes, I find delight in your rules;

they give me guidance.
