 Psalms 119

The excellence of the law of the Lord and the happiness of those who keep it

65-72

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

66 Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I have believed 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 proud have forged lies against me, but I will keep your precepts with all my heart.

70 Their heart is thick as 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 from your mouth is better to me than countless riches in gold or silver.
