You widen my path; my feet do not slip.

The Lord deserves praise, for he has heard my plea for mercy!

You do damage with words, and use your tongue to deceive.

The earth yields its crops. May God, our God, bless us!

What we have heard and learned – that which our ancestors have told us –

They ate until they were stuffed; he gave them what they desired.

Loyal love and faithfulness meet; deliverance and peace greet each other with a kiss.

You have broken down all his walls; you have made his strongholds a heap of ruins.

when he responds to the prayer of the destitute, and does not reject their request.

Yes, he remembered the sacred promise he made to Abraham his servant.

They repay my love with accusations, but I continue to pray.

May his days be few! May another take his job!

Rest once more, my soul, for the Lord has vindicated you.

I will give you thanks, for you answered me, and have become my deliverer.

With my lips I proclaim all the regulations you have revealed.

I run along the path of your commands, for you enable me to do so.

I will find delight in your commands, which I love.

Rage takes hold of me because of the wicked, those who reject your law.

I remember your name during the night, O Lord, and I will keep your law.

The rules you impose are just, and absolutely reliable.
