Psalm 119:9-16 - Beth

⁹ Beth.
How can a young man keep his way pure?
By keeping watch [on himself] according to Your word [conforming his life to Your precepts].
¹⁰
With all my heart I have sought You, [inquiring of You and longing for You];
Do not let me wander from Your commandments [neither through ignorance nor by willful disobedience].
¹¹
Your word I have treasured and stored in my heart,
That I may not sin against You.
¹²
Blessed and reverently praised are You, O Lord;
Teach me Your statutes.
¹³
With my lips I have told of
All the ordinances 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 [thoughtfully] regard Your ways [the path of life established by Your precepts].
¹⁶
I will delight in Your statutes;
I will not forget Your word.
