if you diligently seek Ěl and plead with the Almighty,
If thou wouldest seek unto God betimes, And make thy supplication to the Almighty;
If you will seek God diligently and make your supplication to the Almighty,
If thou wouldest seek diligently unto God, And make thy supplication to the Almighty;
If you will search eagerly for God, plead with the Almighty.
even so, you should arise early to God, so as to beseech the Almighty.
Yet if thou wilt arise early to God, and wilt beseech the Almighty:
If you would prepare your heart, and stretch out your hands toward Him;
Look, blessed is the man whom Eloah does reprove, so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.
But as for me, I would seek Ěl, and I would submit my case to Elohim,
For though I were righteous, I would not answer Him. I pray to Him for my right-ruling.
