Psalms 119:7
5 Oh, that my ways were committed to keeping Your statutes!
6 Then I would not be ashamed when I consider all Your commandments.
I will praise You with an upright heart when I learn Your righteous judgments.
8 I will keep Your statutes; do not utterly forsake me.
9 How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to Your word.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
