4 The Lord GOD hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned.
4
The Sovereign LORD has given me a well-instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed.
5 The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and I was not rebellious, neither turned away back.
5
The Sovereign LORD has opened my ears; I have not been rebellious, I have not turned away.
