PSALM 119 (5) L.M.

33 Teach me to follow your decrees;
Then I will keep them to the end.
34 Give insight, and I’ll keep your law,
With all my heart to it attend.

35 Lead me in your commandments’ path,
For there, O LORD, delight I find.
36 Incline my heart towards your laws;
From selfish gain preserve my mind.

37 O turn my eyes from worthless things;
Give life according to your word.
38 To me, your servant, keep your pledge,
So that you may be feared, O LORD.

39 Remove from me the shame I dread;
Your laws excel in uprightness.
40 O how I long for your decrees!
Preserve me in your righteousness.
