56This is my way, that I keep your precepts.
57HETH Yahweh is my portion. I promised to obey your words.
58I sought your favor with my whole heart. Be merciful to me according to your word.
59I considered my ways, and turned my steps to your statutes.
60I will hurry, and not delay, to obey your commandments.
61The ropes of the wicked bind me, but I won’t forget your law.
62At midnight I will rise to give thanks to you, because of your righteous ordinances.
63I am a friend of all those who fear you, of those who observe your precepts.
64The earth is full of your loving kindness, Yahweh. Teach me your statutes.
65TETH You have treated your servant well, according to your word, Yahweh.
66Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments.
67Before I was afflicted, I went astray; but now I observe your word.
68You are good, and do good. Teach me your statutes.
69The proud have smeared a lie upon me. With my whole heart, I will keep your precepts.
70Their heart is as callous as the fat, but I delight in your law.
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn your statutes.
72The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.
73YODH Your hands have made me and formed me. Give me understanding, that I may learn your commandments.
