⁶⁵You have dealt well with your servant, O Lord, according to your word.

⁶⁶Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments.

⁶⁷Before I was humbled I went astray, but now I keep your word.

⁶⁸You are good and do good; teach me your statutes.

⁶⁹The arrogant smear me with lies, but with my whole heart I keep your precepts.

⁷⁰Their hearts are fat and gross, but I delight in your law.

⁷¹It is good for me that I was humbled, so that I might learn your statutes.

⁷²The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

⁷³Your hands have made and fashioned me; give me understanding that I may learn your commandments.

⁷⁴Those who fear you shall see me and rejoice, because I have hoped in your word.

⁸³For I have become like a wineskin in the smoke, yet I have not forgotten your statutes.

⁸⁴How long must your servant endure? When will you judge those who persecute me?

⁸⁷They have almost made an end of me on earth; but I have not forsaken your precepts.

⁸⁸In your steadfast love spare my life, so that I may keep the decrees of your mouth.
