From the letter Pe to the letter Kuf

An ancient custom gives each person a verse: the one that begins with the first letter of their name and ends with the last. No verse without a divine Name runs exactly from פ to ק: we then take the closest letter by sound, here from פ to כ.

פָּנֶיךָ הָאֵר בְּעַבְדֶּךָ וְלַמְּדֵנִי אֶת־חֻקֶּיךָ׃

“Make Your face shine upon Your servant, and teach me Your statutes.”
