How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your word.
10
With my whole heart I have sought You; Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
11
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 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 contemplate Your ways.
16
I will delight myself in Your statutes; I will not forget Your word.
17
Deal bountifully with Your servant, That I may live and keep Your word.
18
Open my eyes, that I may see Wondrous things from Your law.
19
I am a stranger in the earth; Do not hide Your commandments from me.
