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.
