If only I were predisposed to keep your statutes!
I open my mouth and pant, because I long for your commands.
See how I love your precepts! O Lord, revive me with your loyal love!
May your hand help me, for I choose to obey your precepts.
I run along the path of your commands, for you enable me to do so. ה (He)
Give me a desire for your rules, rather than for wealth gained unjustly.
Create for me a pure heart, O God! Renew a resolute spirit within me!
“But I will make a new covenant with the whole nation of Israel after I plant them back in the land,” says the Lord. “I will put my law within them and write it on their hearts and minds. I will be their God and they will be my people.
Now may the Lord direct your hearts toward the love of God and the endurance of Christ.
equip you with every good thing to do his will, working in us what is pleasing before him through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever. Amen.
