Psalm 119:65-80
New American Standard Bible
Teth
65 You have treated Your servant well,
Lord, according to Your word.
66 Teach me good [a](A)discernment and knowledge,
For I believe in Your commandments.
67 (B)Before I was afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep Your word.
68 You are (C)good and You (D)do good;
(E)Teach me Your statutes.
69 The arrogant [b]have (F)forged a lie against me;
With all my heart I will (G)comply with Your precepts.
70 Their heart is (H)insensitive, like fat,
But I (I)delight in Your Law.
71 It is (J)good for me that I was afflicted,
So that I may learn Your statutes.
72 The (K)Law of Your mouth is better to me
Than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
Yodh
73 (L)Your hands made me and [c]fashioned me;
(M)Give me understanding, so that I may learn Your commandments.
74 May those who [d]fear You (N)see me and be glad,
Because I [e](O)wait for Your word.
75 I know, Lord, that Your judgments are (P)righteous,
And that You have afflicted me (Q)in faithfulness.
76 May Your favor [f]comfort me,
According to Your [g]word to Your servant.
77 May (R)Your compassion come to me so that I may live,
For Your Law is my (S)delight.
78 May (T)the arrogant be put to shame, because they lead me astray (U)with a lie;
But I shall (V)meditate on Your precepts.
79 May those who [h]fear You turn to me,
And those who know Your testimonies.
80 May my heart be [i](W)blameless in Your statutes,
So that I will not (X)be ashamed.
