but walk in his ways

Psalm 119:1-8
I (Aleph)

A meditation on God’s law

Loving God means keeping his commandments (1 John 5:3).

They are happy whose life is blameless, *
who follow God’s law!
They are happy who do his will, *
seeking him with all their hearts,
who never do anything evil *
but walk in his ways.

You have laid down your precepts *
to be obeyed with care.
May my footsteps be firm *
to obey your statutes.
Then I shall not be put to shame *
as I heed your commands.

I will thank you with an upright heart *
as I learn your decrees.
I will obey your statutes: *
do not forsake me.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.
