Psalm 119:33–40

Teach me, O Lord, the way of your statutes;

and I will keep it to the end.

Give me understanding, that I may keep your law

and observe it with my whole heart.

Lead me in the path of your commandments,

for I delight in it.

Incline my heart to your testimonies,

and not to selfish gain!

Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things;

and give me life in your ways.

Confirm to your servant your promise,

that you may be feared.

Turn away the reproach that I dread,

for your rules are good.

Behold, I long for your precepts;

in your righteousness give me life!

Teach me, Lord, the way of your decrees,

that I may follow it to the end.

Give me understanding, so that I may keep your law

and obey it with all my heart.

Direct me in the path of your commands,

for there I find delight.

Turn my heart toward your statutes

and not toward selfish gain.

Turn my eyes away from worthless things;

preserve my life according to your word.

Fulfill your promise to your servant,

so that you may be feared.

Take away the disgrace I dread,

for your laws are good.

How I long for your precepts!

In your righteousness preserve my life.

Teach me, Lord, the meaning of your statutes,

and I will always keep them.

Help me understand your instruction,

and I will obey it

and follow it with all my heart.

Help me stay on the path of your commands,

for I take pleasure in it.

Turn my heart to your decrees

and not to dishonest profit.

Turn my eyes

from looking at what is worthless;

give me life in your ways.

Confirm what you said to your servant,

for it produces reverence for you.

Turn away the disgrace I dread;

indeed, your judgments are good.

How I long for your precepts!

Give me life through your righteousness.

Teach me your decrees, O Lord;

I will keep them to the end.

Give me understanding and I will obey your instructions;

I will put them into practice with all my heart.

Make me walk along the path of your commands,

for that is where my happiness is found.

Give me an eagerness for your laws

rather than a love for money!

Turn my eyes from worthless things,

and give me life through your word.

Reassure me of your promise,

made to those who fear you.

Help me abandon my shameful ways;

for your regulations are good.

I long to obey your commandments!

Renew my life with your goodness.

Teach me, O Yahweh, the way of your statutes,

and I will keep it to the end.

Give me understanding, that I may keep your law

and heed it with my whole heart.

Cause me to walk in the path of your commands,

for I delight in it.

Incline my heart to your testimonies,

and not to dishonest gain.

Turn away my eyes from looking at what is worthless;

revive me in your ways.

Fulfill your word to your servant,

which is to bring about a reverence for you.

Turn away my disgrace that I dread,

for your ordinances are good.

Look, I have longed for your precepts;

revive me in your righteousness.

HE.

Teach me, O Lord, the way of thy statutes;

And I shall keep it unto the end.

Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law;

Yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.

Make me to go in the path of thy commandments;

For therein do I delight.

Incline my heart unto thy testimonies,

And not to covetousness.

Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity;

And quicken thou me in thy way.

Stablish thy word unto thy servant,

Who is devoted to thy fear.

Turn away my reproach which I fear:

For thy judgments are good.

Behold, I have longed after thy precepts:

Quicken me in thy righteousness.
