68 You are good and you do good.Teach me your statutes!
69 The arrogant cover me with their lies,but I guard your precepts with all my heart.
70 Their hearts are unfeeling, like blubber,but I rejoice in your Instruction.
71 My suffering was good for me,because through it I learned your statutes.
72 The Instruction you’ve given to me is betterthan thousands of pieces of gold and silver!
73 Your hands have made me and set me in place.Help me understand so I can learn your commandments.
74 Then those who honor you will see me and be gladbecause I have waited for your promise.
