72 The law that you gave means more to methan all the money in the world.
73 You created me, and you keep me safe;give me understanding, so that I may learn your laws.
74 Those who honour you will be glad when they see me,because I trust in your promise.
75 I know that your judgements are righteous, Lord,and that you punished me because you are faithful.
76 Let your constant love comfort me,as you have promised me, your servant.
77 Have mercy on me, and I will livebecause I take pleasure in your law.
78 May the proud be ashamed for falsely accusing me;as for me, I will meditate on your instructions.
