18. Open my eyes, that I may seeWondrous things from Your law.
19. I am a stranger in the earth;Do not hide Your commandments from me.
20. My soul breaks with longingFor Your judgments at all times.
21. You rebuke the proud—the cursed,Who stray from Your commandments.
22. Remove from me reproach and contempt,For I have kept Your testimonies.
23. Princes also sit and speak against me,But Your servant meditates on Your statutes.
