Psalms 119:33-40
(33) HE. Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.
(34) Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.
(35) Make me to go in the path of thy commandments; for therein do I delight.
(36) Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to covetousness.
(37) Turn away mine eyes from beholding vanity; and quicken thou me in thy way.
(38) Stablish thy word unto thy servant, who is devoted to thy fear.
(39) Turn away my reproach which I fear: for thy judgments are good.
(40) Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.
119:33–40. A sense of dependence and a consciousness of extreme need pervade this section, which is all made up of prayer and plea. The former eight verses trembled with a sense of sin, quivering with a childlike sense of weakness and folly, which caused the man of God to cry out for the help by which alone his soul could be preserved from falling back into sin.
