23 Even if rulers sit together and tell lies about me, I will spend time thinking about your orders.
24 Your covenant laws are my delight. They give me wise advice.
25 I lie in the dust. I'm about to die. Keep me alive as you have promised.
26 I told you how I've lived, and you gave me your answer. Teach me your orders.
27 Help me understand what your rules can teach me. Then I'll spend time thinking about the miracles you have done.
28 My sadness has worn me out. Give me strength as you have promised.
29 Keep me from cheating and telling lies. Be kind and teach me your law.
