58I entreated thy favor with my whole heart: Be merciful unto me according to thy word.
59I thought on my ways, And turned my feet unto thy testimonies.
60I made haste, and delayed not, To observe thy commandments.
61The cords of the wicked have wrapped me round; But I have not forgotten thy law.
62At midnight I will rise to give thanks unto thee Because of thy righteous ordinances.
63I am a companion of all them that fear thee, And of them that observe thy precepts.
64The earth, O Jehovah, is full of thy lovingkindness: Teach me thy statutes.
65Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O Jehovah, according unto thy word.
66Teach me good judgment and knowledge; For I have believed in thy commandments.
67Before I was afflicted I went astray; But now I observe thy word.
68Thou art good, and doest good; Teach me thy statutes.
69The proud have forged a lie against me: With my whole heart will I keep thy precepts.
70Their heart is as fat as grease; But I delight in thy law.
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted; That I may learn thy statutes.
72The law of thy mouth is better unto me Than thousands of gold and silver.
73Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: Give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.
74They that fear thee shall see me and be glad, Because I have hoped in thy word.
