65 You have dealt well with your servant,O Lord, according to your word.66 Teach me good judgment 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 insolent smear me with lies,but with my whole heart I keep your precepts;70 their heart is unfeeling like fat,but I delight in your law.71 It is good for me that I was afflicted,that I might learn your statutes.72 The law of your mouth is better to methan thousands of gold and silver pieces.
