72 I would rather obey youthan have a thousand piecesof silver and gold.
73 You created meand put me together.Make me wise enough to learnwhat you have commanded.

75 Your decisions are correct,and you were rightto punish me.
76 I serve you, Lord.Comfort me with your love,just as you have promised.
77 I love to obey your Law!Have mercy and let me live.
