Psalm 119:65-72

English Standard Version

⁶⁵ You have dealt well with your servant,
    O Lord, ^(A)according to your word.
⁶⁶ Teach me ^(B)good judgment and knowledge,
    for I believe in your commandments.
^67 (C)Before I was afflicted I went astray,
    but now I keep your word.
^68 (D)You are good and do good;
    ^(E)teach me your statutes.
^69 (F)The insolent ^(G)smear me with lies,
    but with my whole heart I ^(H)keep your precepts;
⁷⁰ their heart is unfeeling ^(I)like fat,
    but I ^(J)delight in your law.
⁷¹ It is ^(K)good for me that I was afflicted,
    that I might learn your statutes.
^72 (L)The law of your mouth is better to me
    than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
