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.
82Mine eyes fail with looking for thy promise; When. say I, wilt thou comfort me?
83Yea, I am become like a bottle in the smoke; Yet do I not forget thy statutes.
84How many are the days of thy servant? When wilt thou execute judgment upon my persecutors?
85The proud have digged pits for me; They who do not regard thy law.
86All thy commandments are faithful; They persecute me without cause; help thou me!
87They had almost consumed me from the earth; But I forsook not thy precepts.
88Quicken me according to thy loving-kindness, That I may keep the law of thy mouth!
