Psalms 119:69-80

⁶⁹Proud people have told many lies about me, but the truth is that with all my inner being I obey ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

⁷⁰Those proud people ◄are stupid/do not understand your laws► IDM, but as for me, I am delighted with your laws.

⁷¹It was good for me that you afflicted/punished me, because the result was that I learned ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do►.

⁷²The laws that you MTY gave/told to us are worth more to me than gold, more than thousands of pieces of gold and silver.

⁷³You created me and formed my body (OR, kept me safe); help me to be wise in order that I may learn ◄your commands/what you have commanded►.

⁷⁴Those who have an awesome respect for you will see what you have done for me, and they will rejoice, because they will see that I have trusted in ◄your words/what you told us►.

⁷⁵Yahweh, I know that ◄your regulations/the rules that you have given to us► are right/fair and that you have afflicted/punished me because you faithfully do what you have promised.

⁷⁶Cause me to be comforted/encouraged by knowing that you faithfully love me, like you said to me that you would do.

⁷⁷Be merciful to me in order that I may continue to live, because I am delighted with your laws.

⁷⁸Cause the proud people who falsely accuse me to be ashamed, but as for me, I will continue ◄meditating on/thinking about► ◄your principles of behavior/what you have declared that we should do►.

⁷⁹Cause those who revere you to come back to me in order that they may (OR, specifically, those who) know ◄your requirements/what you have instructed us to do►.

⁸⁰Enable me to perfectly obey ◄your statutes/what you have decreed that we should do► in order that I may not be ashamed because of not doing that.
