who walk in the law of the LORD.
[2] Happy are those who keep his decrees,
who seek him with their whole heart,
[3] who also do no wrong,
but walk in his ways.
[4] You have commanded your precepts
to be kept diligently.
[5] O that my ways may be steadfast
in keeping your statutes!
[6] Then I shall not be put to shame,
having my eyes fixed on all your commandments.
[7] I will praise you with an upright heart,
when I learn your righteous ordinances.
[8] I will observe your statutes;
do not utterly forsake me.
[9] How can young people keep their way pure?
By guarding it according to your word.
[10] With my whole heart I seek you;
do not let me stray from your commandments.
[11] I treasure your word in my heart,
so that I may not sin against you.
[12] Blessed are you, O LORD;
teach me your statutes.
[13] With my lips I declare
all the ordinances of your mouth.
[14] I delight in the way of your decrees
as much as in all riches.
[15] I will meditate on your precepts,
and fix my eyes on your ways.
[16] I will delight in your statutes;
I will not forget your word.
[17] Deal bountifully with your servant,
so that I may live and observe your word.
[18] Open my eyes, so that I may behold
wondrous things out of your law.
[19] I live as an alien in the land;
do not hide your commandments from me.
[20] My soul is consumed with longing
for your ordinances at all times.
[21] You rebuke the insolent, accursed ones,
who wander from your commandments;
[22] take away from me their scorn and contempt,
for I have kept your decrees.
[23] Even though princes sit plotting against me,
your servant will meditate on your statutes.
[24] Your decrees are my delight,
they are my counselors.
