33
Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I will keep it to the end.
34
Give me understanding, that I may keep thy law and observe it with my whole heart.
35
Lead me in the path of thy commandments, for I delight in it.
36
Incline my heart to thy testimonies, and not to gain!
37
Turn my eyes from looking at vanities; and give me life in thy ways.
38
Confirm to thy servant thy promise, which is for those who fear thee.
39
Turn away the reproach which I dread; for thy ordinances are good.
40
Behold, I long for thy precepts; in thy righteousness give me life!
