“For your name’s sake!
Yahweh!
Pardon my guilt!
For it is great!
Mem
Who are they that fear Yahweh?
He will teach them the way that they should choose.
Nun
They will abide in prosperity.
Their children shall possess the land.
Samek
The friendship of Yahweh is
For those who fear him.
He makes his covenant known to them.”
The psalmist, David, wanted to be pardoned for his great guilt. Anyone that feared Yahweh could be taught the way to follow him. Those who follow Yahweh will be blessed with prosperity and land. Yahweh was friendly to those who feared him. He made a covenant with them.
