I [am] a stranger in the earth: hide not thy commandments from me.
My soul breaketh for the longing [that it hath] unto thy judgments at all times.
Thou hast rebuked the proud [that are] cursed, which do err from thy commandments.
Remove from me reproach and contempt; for I have kept thy testimonies.
Princes also did sit [and] speak against me: [but] thy servant did meditate in thy statutes.
Thy testimonies also [are] my delight [and] my counsellors.
DALETH. My soul cleaveth unto the dust: quicken thou me according to thy word.
I have declared my ways, and thou heardest me: teach me thy statutes.
Make me to understand the way of thy precepts: so shall I talk of thy wondrous works.
My soul melteth for heaviness: strengthen thou me according unto thy word.
