Teth
| 1. Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according unto thy word. | 1. God will scold unworthy cowards, not valiant to the truth they heard. |
| 2. Teach me good judgment and knowledge: for I have believed thy commandments. | 2. Me? I'm fervent, and behave; and hence, just God, do welcome me to thy glad kingdom. |
| 3. Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word. | 3. I was the bad town flirt: after I face burdens, I vow to keep thy way. |
| 4. Thou art good, and doest good; teach me thy statutes. | 4. Ah, thy sage code! That's not outdated, so tutor me, God. |
| 5. The proud have forged a lie against me: but I will keep thy precepts with my whole heart. | 5. If I watch the haughty people make up dirt on me that's warped: glory be! I will serve thee. |
| 6. Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law. | 6. Haughty "wise" liar's deals! I attain far better heights. |
| 7. It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes. | 7. As to that mighty evil bad fortune, the effect that it has: I'm in God's atelier. |
| 8. The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver. | 8. That hundreds of dollars sum total? O, it won't buy me the things of heaven. |
