"Teach me to do Your will, for You are my G-D. Let Your spirit, which is good, lead me on level land (Psalm 143:10)." David asks of G-D that He facilitate their relationship. It is David’s commitment to Hashem, his acceptance of Hashem’s dominion, which prompts him to request personal instruction from Hashem. David seeks to learn all of G-D’s commandments so that he may fulfill them. Furthermore, he asks that Hashem, who is good and seeks to better man, lead him on the correct road. The path he seeks is the path of Hashem’s commandments, the straight and level path. The Da’at Mikra comments that David is asking that Hashem, in His love, kindness and compassion, lead him through level land that is easily traveled, not along a rocky and dangerous road. David seeks a path free of his enemies. It is David’s intense desire to better serve Hashem and carry out His will that is his motivation in seeking a safer and easier path through life.
