21You have rebuked the insolent; *
cursed are they who stray from your commandments!
22Turn from me shame and rebuke, *
for I have kept your decrees.
23Even though rulers sit and plot against me, *
I will meditate on your statutes.
24For your decrees are my delight, *
and they are my counselors.
Daleth Adhæsit pavimento
25My soul cleaves to the dust; *
give me life according to your word.
26I have confessed my ways, and you answered me; *
instruct me in your statutes.
27Make me understand the way of your commandments, *
that I may meditate on your marvelous works.
28My soul melts away for sorrow; *
strengthen me according to your word.
29Take from me the way of lying; *
let me find grace through your law.
30I have chosen the way of faithfulness; *
I have set your judgments before me.
31I hold fast to your decrees; *
O Lord, let me not be put to shame.
32I will run the way of your commandments, *
for you have set my heart at liberty.
