Psalm 119:18

Gimel

¹⁷ Gimel.
Deal bountifully with Your servant,
That I may live and keep Your word [treasuring it and being guided by it day by day].
¹⁸ 
Open my eyes [to spiritual truth] so that I may behold
Wonderful things from Your law.
¹⁹
I am a stranger on the earth;
Do not hide Your commandments from me.
