1. Ashrei are the blameless ones in the derech, who walk in the torat Hashem.
2. Ashrei are they that keep His edot (testimonies), and that seek Him with kol lev.
3. They also do no iniquity; they walk in His drakhim.
4. Thou hast commanded us to be diligently shomer over Thy pikkudim (precepts).
5. O that my drakhim were directed to be shomer over Thy chukkot (statutes)!
6. Then shall I not be ashamed, when I have respect unto all Thy mitzvot.
7. I will praise Thee with yosher levav (uprightness of heart) when I shall have learned Thy righteous mishpatim (ordinances).
8. I will keep Thy chukkot; O forsake me not utterly.
