61 Though the snares of the wicked surround me,your law I do not forget.
62 At midnight I rise to praise youbecause of your righteous judgments.
63 I am the friend of all who fear you,of all who observe your precepts.
64 The earth, Lord, is filled with your mercy;teach me your statutes.
65 You have treated your servant well,according to your word, O Lord.
66 Teach me wisdom and knowledge,for in your commandments I trust.
67 Before I was afflicted I went astray,but now I hold to your promise.
