Teach me thy way, O Lord,.... Of providence, grace, and duty; See Gill on
Psa 25:4
;
and lead me in a plain path: as the path of truth is to those that understand and find knowledge; and as the way of holiness is, even to such who in other things are fools, but shall not err therein,
Pro 8:9
,
Isa 35:8
; or the path of righteousness, in which Christ, the wisdom of God, and shepherd of his people, leads them,
Psa 23:3
;
because of mine enemies, or "those that observe me"; who eyed him as Saul did,
Sa1 18:9
; and waited for his halting, as Jeremiah's familiars did for him; and lay in wait to deceive him, and lead him out of the way, as false teachers do; and come upon him at an unawares, and take every advantage against him, as Satan does.
