Psalm 119:1-8

ALEPH

1 Blessed are the undefiled in the way,

​​Who walk in the law of the LORD!

2 ​​Blessed are those who keep His testimonies,

​​Who seek Him with the whole heart!

3 ​​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 ​​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!
