65. Do good to your servantaccording to your word, Lord.
66. Teach me knowledge and good judgment,for I trust your commands.
67. Before I was afflicted I went astray,but now I obey your word.
68. You are good, and what you do is good;teach me your decrees.
69. Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies,I keep your precepts with all my heart.
70. Their hearts are callous and unfeeling,but I delight in your law.
71. It was good for me to be afflictedso that I might learn your decrees.
72. The law from your mouth is more precious to methan thousands of pieces of silver and gold.
73. Your hands made me and formed me;give me understanding to learn your commands.
