Psalms 119:1-8

1Blessed are those whose lives have integrity, those who follow the teachings of the Lord.

2Blessed are those who obey his written instructions. They wholeheartedly search for him.

3They do nothing wrong. They follow his directions.

4You have commanded that your guiding principles be carefully followed.

5I pray that my ways may become firmly established so that I can obey your laws.

6Then I will never feel ashamed when I study all your commandments.

7I will give thanks to you as I learn your regulations, which are based on your righteousness.

8I will obey your laws. Never abandon me.
