16 I take delight in your orders. I won't fail to obey your word.
17 Be good to me, and I will live. I will obey your word.
18 Open my eyes so that I can see the wonderful truths in your law.
19 I'm a stranger on earth. Don't hide your commands from me.
20 My heart is filled with longing for your laws at all times.
21 You correct proud people. They are under your curse. They wander away from your commands.
22 I obey your covenant laws. So don't let evil people laugh at me or hate me.
