Teach me, Yahweh, * the way of your statutes, * that I may guard it as a reward.

Give me insight to observe your law, * and keep it with all my heart.

Direct me in the path of your commandments, * for I delight in it.

Move my heart to your terms,* and not to wrongful gain.

Keep my eyes from looking at idols, * by your power give me life.

Maintain your promise to your servant, * because truly I fear you.

Remove my reproach because I revere you, * since your rules are good.

See how I long for your precepts; * in your justice give me life.
