From Psalm 119
Your eternal word, O Lord, stands firm in heaven. Your faithfulness extends to every generation, as enduring as the earth you created.
O Lord, you are righteous, and your regulations are fair. Your laws are perfect and completely trustworthy. The very essence of your words is truth; all your just regulations will stand forever.
Open my eyes to see he wonderful truths in your instructions.
Turn my eyes from worthless things, and give me life through your word.
Your instructions are more valuable to me than millions in gold and silver. I rejoice in your word like one who discovers a great treasure.
Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path. You are my refuge and my shield; your word is my source of hope.
I have wandered away like a lost sheep; come and find me, for I have not forgotten your commands suffering was good for me, for it taught me to pay attention to your decrees. Surround me with your tender mercies so I may live, for your instructions are my delight.
Joyful are people of integrity, who follow the instructions of the Lord.
Joyful are those who obey his laws and search for him with all their hearts.
