I consider my actions and follow your rules.

I am a friend to all your loyal followers, and to those who keep your precepts.

ט (Tet) You are good to your servant, O Lord, just as you promised.

Before I was afflicted I used to stray off, but now I keep your instructions.

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

May your loyal love console me, as you promised your servant.

May your loyal followers turn to me, those who know your rules.

My eyes grow tired as I wait for your promise to be fulfilled. I say, “When will you comfort me?”

Revive me with your loyal love, that I might keep the rules you have revealed.

ל (Lamed) O Lord, your instructions endure; they stand secure in heaven.

Your commandments make me wiser than my enemies, for I am always aware of them.

I have more insight than all my teachers, for I meditate on your rules.

I stay away from the evil path, so that I might keep your instructions.

I claim your rules as my permanent possession, for they give me joy.

Sustain me as you promised, so that I will live. Do not disappoint me!

You remove all the wicked of the earth like slag. Therefore I love your rules.

My body trembles because I fear you; I am afraid of your judgments.

ע (Ayin) I do what is fair and right. Do not abandon me to my oppressors!

My eyes grow tired as I wait for your deliverance, for your reliable promise to be fulfilled.

I am your servant. Give me insight, so that I can understand your rules.
