Psalm
119
1
How blessed are those whose actions are blameless, who obey the law of the LORD.
2
How blessed are those who observe his rules, and seek him with all their heart,
3
who, moreover, do no wrong, but follow in his footsteps.
4
You demand that your precepts be carefully kept.
5
If only I were predisposed to keep your statutes!
6
Then I would not be ashamed, if I were focused on all your commands.
7
I will give you sincere thanks, when I learn your just regulations.
8
I will keep your statutes. Do not completely abandon me!
9
How can a young person maintain a pure life? By guarding it according to your instructions!
10
With all my heart I seek you. Do not allow me to stray from your commands!
11
In my heart I store up your words, so I might not sin against you.
12
You deserve praise, O LORD! Teach me your statutes!
13
With my lips I proclaim all the regulations you have revealed.
14
I rejoice in the lifestyle prescribed by your rules as if they were riches of all kinds.
15
I will meditate on your precepts and focus on your behavior.
16
I find delight in your statutes; I do not forget your instructions.
17
Be kind to your servant! Then I will live and keep your instructions.
18
Open my eyes so I can truly see the marvelous things in your law!
19
I am like a foreigner in this land. Do not hide your commands from me!
20
I desperately long to know your regulations at all times.
21
You reprimand arrogant people. Those who stray from your commands are doomed.
22
Spare me shame and humiliation, for I observe your rules.
23
Though rulers plot and slander me, your servant meditates on your statutes.
24
Yes, I find delight in your rules; they give me guidance.
25
I collapse in the dirt. Revive me with your word!
26
I told you about my ways and you answered me. Teach me your statutes!
27
Help me to understand what your precepts mean! Then I can meditate on your marvelous teachings.

33
Teach me, O LORD, the lifestyle prescribed by your statutes, so that I might observe it continually.
34
Give me understanding so that I might observe your law, and keep it with all my heart.

Guide me in the path of your commands, for I delight to walk in it.
36
Give me a desire for your rules, rather than for wealth gained unjustly.

Confirm to your servant your promise, which you made to the one who honors you.
39
Take away the insults that I dread! Indeed, your regulations are good.
40
Look, I long for your precepts. Revive me with your deliverance!
41
