Exegesis
The vav-consecutive verb wayyiṯten {וַיִּתֵּ֖ן | wayyiṯten} ‘and he gave’ introduces a sequential action that affects darkî {דַּרְכִּי | darkî} ‘my way’, which is qualified by the adjective tāmîm {תָּמִים | tāmîm} ‘blameless’. The Piel participle intensifies the divine action while the Qal wayyiqtol form marks narrative sequence, highlighting the progression from divine empowerment to moral completeness.
