65 You have dealt graciously with your servant, ♦︎
according to your word, O Lord.
66 O teach me true understanding and knowledge, ♦︎
for I have trusted in your commandments.
67 Before I was afflicted I went astray, ♦︎
but now I keep your word.
68 You are gracious and do good; ♦︎
O Lord, teach me your statutes.
69 The proud have smeared me with lies, ♦︎
but I will keep your commandments with my whole heart.
70 Their heart has become gross with fat, ♦︎
but my delight is in your law.
71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted, ♦︎
that I may learn your statutes.
72 The law of your mouth is dearer to me ♦︎
than a hoard of gold and silver.
