Psalm 119 - Part 14 Grammar

נֵר לְרַגְלִי דְבָרֶךָ וְאוֹר לִנְתִיבָתִי	Nigh, a lamp to my feet, is your word and light to my path
נִשְׁבַּעְתִּי וָאֲקַיֵּמָה לִשְׁמֹר מִשְׁפְּטֵי צִדְקֶךָ	Now I have sworn and I will do it to guard the judgments of your righteousness
נַעֲנֵיתִי עַד מְאֹד יְהוָה חַיֵּנִי כִדְבָרֶךָ	Near to much trouble am I, יְהוָה give me life by your word
נִדְבוֹת פִּי רְצֵה נָא יְהוָה וּמִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ לַמְּדֵנִי	Now please accept, יְהוָה, the gifts of my mouth and teach me your judgments
נַפְשִׁי בְכַפִּי תָמִיד וְתוֹרָתְךָ לֹא שָׁכָחְתִּי	Note my being is in my hand continually and I have not forgotten your teaching
נָתְנוּ רְשָׁעִים פַּח לִי וּמִפִּקּוּדֶיךָ לֹא תָעִיתִי	Netted the wicked a snare for me but I did not depart from your precepts -
נָחַלְתִּי עֵדְו‍ֹתֶיךָ לְעוֹלָם כִּי שְׂשׂוֹן לִבִּי הֵמָּה	No! I have acquired your testimonies for ever for they are the rejoicing of my heart
נָטִיתִי לִבִּי לַעֲשׂוֹת חֻקֶּיךָ  לְעוֹלָם עֵקֶב	Nuanced have I my heart in doing your statutes for ever with foot firmly planted

The fifth verse underlines our danger. We are in our own hands. We have a real responsibility, and though we do not forget, we do not always do.But when we do - is it as in the last phrase to the purpose of the command? I hope so - I think the only command is to engage by faith this invitation to life.
