The way of the righteous is level;
    O Just One, you make smooth the path of the righteous.
In the path of your judgements,
    O Lord, we wait for you;
your name and your renown
    are the soul’s desire.
My soul yearns for you in the night,
    my spirit within me earnestly seeks you.
For when your judgements are in the earth,
    the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
