Psalm 119:1-16

New King James Version

119 Blessed are the ^[a]undefiled in the way,
^(A)Who walk in the law of the Lord!
² Blessed are those who keep His testimonies,
Who seek Him with the ^(B)whole heart!
^3 (C)They also do no iniquity;
They walk in His ways.
⁴ You have commanded us
To keep Your precepts diligently.
⁵ Oh, that my ways were directed
To keep Your statutes!
^6 (D)Then I would not be ashamed,
When I look into all Your commandments.
⁷ I will praise You with uprightness of heart,
When I learn Your righteous judgments.
⁸ I will keep Your statutes;
Oh, do not forsake me utterly!

⁹ How can a young man cleanse his way?
By taking heed according to Your word.
¹⁰ With my whole heart I have ^(E)sought You;
Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
^11 (F)Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.
¹² Blessed are You, O Lord!
Teach me Your statutes.
¹³ With my lips I have ^(G)declared
All the judgments of Your mouth.
¹⁴ I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,
As much as in all riches.
¹⁵ I will meditate on Your precepts,
And ^[b]contemplate Your ways.
¹⁶ I will ^(H)delight myself in Your statutes;
I will not forget Your word.
