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.
73 Your hands have made and fashioned me; give me understanding that I may learn your commandments.
