26. I have declared my ways and opened my griefs to You, and You listened to me; teach me Your statutes.
27. Make me understand the way of Your precepts; so shall I meditate on and talk of Your wondrous works. [Ps. 145:5, 6.]
28. My life dissolves and weeps itself away for heaviness; raise me up and strengthen me according to [the promises of] Your word.
29. Remove from me the way of falsehood and unfaithfulness [to You], and graciously impart Your law to me.
30. I have chosen the way of truth and faithfulness; Your ordinances have I set before me.
31. I cleave to Your testimonies; O Lord, put me not to shame!
32. I will [not merely walk, but] run the way of Your commandments, when You give me a heart that is willing.
33. Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, and I will keep it to the end [steadfastly].
