33 He. Lord, set thou to me a law, the way of thy justifyings; and I shall seek it evermore. (Lord, set thou thy Law before me, yea, the way of thy statutes; and I shall follow it forevermore.)
34 Give thou understanding to me, and I shall seek thy law; and I shall keep it in all mine heart. (Give thou understanding to me, and I shall follow thy Law; yea, I shall obey it with all my heart.)
35 Lead me forth in the path of thy behests; for I would it. (Lead me forth on the path of thy commandments; for I delight in them or for that is what I desire.)
36 Bow down mine heart into thy witnessings; and not into avarice. (Turn my heart to thy teachings, or thy commands; and not to greed.)
37 Turn thou away mine eyes, that they see not vanity; quicken thou me in thy way. (Turn thou away my eyes from the empty, and the worthless; grant thou me life in thy way.)
38 Ordain thy speech to thy servant; (who is) in thy dread. (Ordain thy word to thy servant; who feareth thee or who hath reverence for thee.)
39 Cut away my shame, which I supposed; for thy dooms be merry. (Turn away the shame, or the rebuke, which I fear; for thy judgements be good.)
40 Lo! I coveted thy commandments; quicken thou me in thine equity. (Behold! I desired (to obey) thy precepts; grant thou me life in thy righteousness.)
41 Vau. And, Lord, thy mercy come up on me; thine health come by thy speech. (And, Lord, let thy love come to me; let thy salvation, or thy deliverance, come according to thy word.)
42 And I shall answer a word to men saying shame to me; for I hoped in thy words. (And then I shall answer a word to those shaming me; for I put my trust in thy words.)
43 And take thou not away from my mouth the word of truth utterly; for I hoped above in thy dooms. (And never take away the word of truth from my mouth; for I put my hope in thy judgements, or in thy decrees.)
44 And I shall keep thy law evermore; into the world, and into the world of world. (And I shall obey thy Law forevermore; yea, forever and ever.)
45 And I went in largeness; for I sought thy commandments. (And I shall walk in freedom; for I have sought out thy commandments.)
46 And I spake of thy witnessings in the sight of kings; and I was not shamed. (And I shall speak of thy teachings, or thy commands, before kings; and I shall not be ashamed.)
47 And I bethought in thy behests; which I loved. (And I delight myself in thy commandments; which I love.)
48 And I raised mine hands to thy commandments, which I loved; and I shall be exercised in thy justifyings. (And I shall raise up my hands to thy commandments, which I love; and I shall think about thy statutes.)
49 Zain. Lord, have thou mind on thy word to thy servant, (or Lord, remember thy word to thy servant); in which word thou hast given hope to me.
