⁹ How can a young man cleanse his way?
By taking heed according to Your word.

^11 (A)Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.

1 Blessed ^(A)is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the ^[a]ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
^(B)Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
² But ^(C)his delight is in the law of the Lord,
^(D)And in His law he ^[b]meditates day and night.
³ He shall be like a tree
^(E)Planted by the ^[c]rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall ^(F)prosper.
