Psalms 27:11

11 Teach me how you want me to live; ^{▼▼ Heb “teach me your way.” The Lord’s “way” refers here to the moral principles which he expects the psalmist to follow. See Ps 25:4.}
lead me along a level path ^{▼▼ The level path refers to God’s moral principles (see the parallel line), which, if followed, will keep the psalmist blameless before his accusers (see v. 12).} because of those who wait to ambush me! ^{▼▼ Heb “because of those who watch me [with evil intent].” See also Pss 5:8; 54:5; 56:2.}
