123 My eyes fail from seeking Your salvation
And Your righteous word.
124 Deal with Your servant according to Your mercy,
And teach me Your statutes.
125 aI am Your servant;
Give me understanding,
That I may know Your testimonies. 
126 It is time for You to act, O Lord,
For they have1 regarded Your law as void. 
127 aTherefore I love Your commandments
More than gold, yes, than fine gold!

Psalms 119:125

I am thy servant - See the notes at Psalms 116:16.

Give me understanding, that I may know thy testimonies - Since I am thy servant, instruct me in the knowledge of thy will. As I desire to obey thee, show me what will be acceptable obedience, or what thou dost require in order to acceptable service. This is a prayer of piety. A man who sincerely desires to obey God will make it a first point to ascertain what is his will, or what will constitute true obedience.
