17 O do good to your servant that I may live, ♦︎
and so shall I keep your word.
18 Open my eyes, that I may see ♦︎
the wonders of your law.
19 I am a stranger upon earth; ♦︎
hide not your commandments from me.
20 My soul is consumed at all times ♦︎
with fervent longing for your judgements.
21 You have rebuked the arrogant; ♦︎
cursed are those who stray from your commandments.
22 Turn from me shame and rebuke, ♦︎
for I have kept your testimonies.
23 Rulers also sit and speak against me, ♦︎
but your servant meditates on your statutes.
24 For your testimonies are my delight; ♦︎
they are my faithful counsellors.
