A Prayer for Total Honesty
Commentators explain that the 'way of falsehood' is far more than just verbal dishonesty. It includes self-deception, hypocrisy, insincerity towards God, and following false doctrines. The psalmist prays for complete integrity, asking God to remove any tendency to act from wrong motives, profess an unfelt experience, or live under any form of delusion.
