34. Give me understanding, and I shall keep Thy torah; yes, I shall be shomer over it with my kol lev.
35. Make me to go in the path of Thy mitzvot; for therein do I delight.
36. Incline my lev unto Thy edot, and not to betza (covetousness, selfish gain).
37. Turn away mine eyes from beholding shav (vanity); and revive Thou me in Thy derech.
38. Establish Thy word unto Thy eved, which is for the fear of Thee.
39. Turn away my cherpah (reproach) which I fear; for Thy mishpatim are tovim.
40. Hinei, I have longed after Thy precepts; revive me in Thy tzedakah.
41. Let Thy chasadim come also unto me, Hashem, even Thy Teshu'ah (salvation), according to Thy word.
42. So shall I have wherewith to answer him that reproacheth me; for I trust in Thy Davar.
43. And take not the devar emes utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in Thy mishpatim.
44. So shall I be shomer over Thy torah tamid l'olam va'ed.
45. And I will walk freely in a wide place; for I seek Thy pikkudim.
46. I will speak of Thy edot (testimonies) also before melachim, and will not be ashamed.
47. And I will delight myself in Thy mitzvot, which I love.
