Meet me do Thy mercies, and I live, For Thy law [is] my delight.
But — in the law of Jehovah [is] his delight, And in His law he doth meditate by day and by night:
In Thy statutes I delight myself, I do not forget Thy word.
[Gimel.] Confer benefits on Thy servant, I live, and I keep Thy word.
I have longed for Thy salvation, O Jehovah, And Thy law [is] my delight.
Thy testimonies also [are] my delight, The men of my counsel!
[Waw.] And meet me doth Thy kindness, O Jehovah, Thy salvation according to Thy saying.
And I delight myself in Thy commands, That I have loved,
‘Incline, O my God, Thine ear, and hear, open Thine eyes and see our desolations, and the city on which Thy name is called; for not for our righteous acts are we causing our supplications to fall before Thee, but for Thy mercies that [are] many.
