And I proclaim there a fast, by the river Ahava, to afflict ourselves before our God, to seek from Him a right way for us, and for our infants, and for all our substance,

To a man whose way hath been hidden, And whom God doth shut up?

O the happiness of that one, who Hath not walked in the counsel of the wicked. And in the way of sinners hath not stood, And in the seat of scorners hath not sat;

For Jehovah is knowing the way of the righteous, And the way of the wicked is lost!

O Jehovah, lead me in Thy righteousness, Because of those observing me, Make straight before me Thy way,

Pain do his ways at all times, On high are Thy judgments before him, All his adversaries -- he puffeth at them.

For I have kept the ways of Jehovah, And have not done wickedly against my God.

God! perfect is His way, The saying of Jehovah is tried, A shield is He to all those trusting in Him.

God! who is girding me with strength, And He maketh perfect my way.

Thy ways, O Jehovah, cause me to know, Thy paths teach Thou me.

Good and upright is Jehovah, Therefore He directeth sinners in the way.

He causeth the humble to tread in judgment, And teacheth the humble His way.

Who is this -- the man fearing Jehovah? He directeth him in the way He doth choose.

Shew me, O Jehovah, Thy way, And lead me in a path of uprightness, For the sake of my beholders.

I cause thee to act wisely, And direct thee in the way that thou goest, I cause mine eye to take counsel concerning thee.

Their way is darkness and slipperiness, And a messenger of Jehovah their pursuer.

Iniquity he deviseth on his bed, He stationeth himself on a way not good, Evil he doth not refuse.'

Roll on Jehovah thy way, And trust upon Him, and He worketh,

Be silent for Jehovah, and stay thyself for Him, Do not fret because of him Who is making prosperous his way, Because of a man doing wicked devices.
