67Before I was afflicted, I went astray; But now I keep thy word.
68Thou art good and doest good; O teach me thy statutes!
69The proud forge lies against me, But I keep thy precepts with my whole heart.
70Their heart is senseless like fat; But I delight in thy law.
71It is good for me that I have been afflicted, That I might learn thy statutes.
72The law of thy mouth is better to me Than thousands of gold and silver.
73Thy hands have made and fashioned me; Give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments!
74They who fear thee shall see me and rejoice, Because I trust in thy word.
75I know, O LORD! that thy judgments are right, And that in faithfulness thou hast afflicted me.
76O let thy loving-kindness be my comfort, According to thy promise to thy servant!
77Let thy tender mercies come to me, that I may live! For thy law is my delight.
78May the proud be put to shame, who wrong me without cause! But I will meditate on thy precepts.
79Let those who fear thee turn unto me, And they that know thine ordinances!
80May my heart be perfect in thy statutes, That I may not be put to shame!
81My soul fainteth for thy salvation; In thy promise do I trust.
