Psalms 119:133
131 I open my mouth and pant, longing for Your commandments.
132 Turn to me and show me mercy, as You do to those who love Your name.
Order my steps in Your word; let no sin rule over me.
134 Redeem me from the oppression of man, that I may keep Your precepts.
135 Make Your face shine upon Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.
