Psalm 119:1-8

1 Blessed are those whose ways are blameless,

who walk according to the law of the Lord. 2 Blessed are those who keep his statutes

and seek him with all their heart— 3 they do no wrong

but follow his ways. 4 You have laid down precepts

that are to be fully obeyed. 5 Oh, that my ways were steadfast

in obeying your decrees! 6 Then I would not be put to shame

when I consider all your commands. 7 I will praise you with an upright heart

as I learn your righteous laws. 8 I will obey your decrees;

do not utterly forsake me.
