19. I feel like a stranger visiting here on earth. I need to know your commands. Don’t keep them hidden from me.
20. I constantly feel a hunger to understand your laws.
21. You tell the proud how angry you are with them. All those who refuse to obey your word are cursed.
22. Don’t let me be ashamed and embarrassed. I have obeyed your rules.
23. Even if rulers say bad things about me, I am your servant, and I continue to study your laws.
24. Your rules make me happy. They give me good advice.
25. I lie here like a dying man. Say the word, and I will live again.
