View Full Chapter

69Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies, I keep your precepts with all my heart.

70Their hearts are callous and unfeeling, but I delight in your law.

71It was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn your decrees.

72The law from your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold. י Yodh

73Your hands made me and formed me; give me understanding to learn your commands.

74May those who fear you rejoice when they see me, for I have put my hope in your word.

75I know, LORD, that your laws are righteous, and that in faithfulness you have afflicted me.

76May your unfailing love be my comfort, according to your promise to your servant.

77Let your compassion come to me that I may live, for your law is my delight.

78May the arrogant be put to shame for wronging me without cause; but I will meditate on your precepts.

79May those who fear you turn to me, those who understand your statutes.
