Turn my heart toward your statutes
and not toward selfish gain.
Turn my eyes away from worthless things;

so that you may be feared.
Take away the disgrace I dread,
for your laws are good.
How I long for your precepts!
In your righteousness preserve my life.

Turn my eyes away from worthless things;

How I long for your precepts!
In your righteousness preserve my life.
