He gave it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as a lasting promise,

For he fulfills his decree against me, and many such things are his plans.

When he imposed a limit for the rain, and a path for the thunderstorm,

when I prescribed its limits, and set in place its bolts and doors,

He gave it to Jacob as a decree, to Israel as a lasting promise,

If only I were predisposed to keep your statutes!

You deserve praise, O Lord! Teach me your statutes!

I told you about my ways and you answered me. Teach me your statutes!

ה (He) Teach me, O Lord, the lifestyle prescribed by your statutes, so that I might observe it continually.

Your statutes have been my songs in the house where I live.

O Lord, your loyal love fills the earth. Teach me your statutes!

You are good and you do good. Teach me your statutes!

I am determined to obey your statutes at all times, to the very end.

Support me, so that I will be delivered. Then I will focus on your statutes continually.

Show your servant your loyal love! Teach me your statutes!

Smile on your servant! Teach me your statutes!

May praise flow freely from my lips, for you teach me your statutes.

He proclaims his word to Jacob, his statutes and regulations to Israel.

You must eat it in a holy place because it is your allotted portion and the allotted portion of your sons from the gifts of the Lord, for this is what I have been commanded.

I have not departed from the commands of his lips; I have treasured the words of his mouth more than my allotted portion.
