GIMEL: Seeking Life and Insight from the Law

Psalms 119:17-24

Deal bountifully with Your servant, that I may live and keep Your word.

Open my eyes that I may see wondrous things from Your law.

I am a stranger on the earth; do not hide Your commandments from me.

My soul is consumed with longing for Your judgments at all times.

You rebuke the arrogant— the cursed who stray from Your commandments.

Remove my scorn and contempt, for I have kept Your testimonies.

Though rulers sit and slander me, Your servant meditates on Your statutes.

Your testimonies are indeed my delight; they are my counselors.
