אַ֭תָּה צִוִּ֥יתָה פִקֻּדֶ֗יךָ לִשְׁמֹ֥ר מְאֹֽד׃
주께서 주의 법도로 명하사 우리로 근실히 지키게 하셨나이다
Midrash Tehillim
You commanded your commandments to be kept diligently. Everywhere that God commanded about the Torah, He commanded them about the Torah. He commanded them in the prophets. He commanded them in the writings. And God said, "Have I not written for you thirty sayings of counsel and knowledge?" (Proverbs 22:20). And He also said, "Hear, O Israel, and be careful to do them" (Deuteronomy 6:3). And He said, "Only take care, and keep your soul diligently" (Deuteronomy 4:9). What is "take care"? God said, "If you keep the Torah, I will keep your soul" (Talmud, Shabbat 127a). Therefore it is said, "Take care and keep your soul diligently all the days of your life" (Deuteronomy 4:9). What are "all the days of your life"? If you do the Torah all the days of your life, you will merit to see children and grandchildren. Therefore it is said, "And you shall teach them to your children and your grandchildren" (Deuteronomy 4:9). And if you see children and grandchildren, then there will be peace, as it is said, "May you see your children's children! Peace be upon Israel!" (Psalms 128:6).
