20. I am always overwhelmedwith a desire for your regulations.
21. You rebuke the arrogant;those who wander from your commands are cursed.
22. Don’t let them scorn and insult me,for I have obeyed your laws.
23. Even princes sit and speak against me,but I will meditate on your decrees.
24. Your laws please me;they give me wise advice.
25. I lie in the dust;revive me by your word.
26. I told you my plans, and you answered.Now teach me your decrees.
27. Help me understand the meaning of your commandments,and I will meditate on your wonderful deeds.
28. I weep with sorrow;encourage me by your word.
