Psalms 119:60-77 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

60. I hastened and did not delay To keep Your commandments.

61. The cords of the wicked have encircled me, But I have not forgotten Your law.

62. At midnight I shall rise to give thanks to You Because of Your righteous ordinances.

63. I am a companion of all those who fear You, And of those who keep Your precepts.

64. The earth is full of Your lovingkindness, O Lord; Teach me Your statutes.

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

66. Teach me good discernment and knowledge, For I believe in Your commandments.

67. Before I was afflicted I went astray, But now I keep Your word.

68. You are good and do good; Teach me Your statutes.

69. The arrogant have forged a lie against me; With all my heart I will observe Your precepts.

70. Their heart is covered with fat, But I delight in Your law.

71. It is good for me that I was afflicted, That I may learn Your statutes.

72. The law of Your mouth is better to me Than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

73. Your hands made me and fashioned me; Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments.

74. May those who fear You see me and be glad, Because I wait for Your word.

75. I know, O Lord, that Your judgments are righteous, And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

76. O may Your lovingkindness comfort me, According to Your word to Your servant.

77. May Your compassion come to me that I may live, For Your law is my delight.
