65 
You have dealt well with Your servant,
O Lord, according to Your promise.
66 
Teach me good judgment (discernment) and knowledge,
For I have believed and trusted and relied on Your commandments.
67 
Before I was afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep and honor Your word [with loving obedience].
68 
You are good and do good;
Teach me Your statutes.
69 
The arrogant have forged a lie against me,
But I will keep Your precepts with all my heart.

Their heart is insensitive like fat [their minds are dull and brutal],
But I delight in Your law.

It is good for me that I have been afflicted,
That I may learn Your statutes.
72 
The law from Your mouth is better to me
Than thousands of gold and silver pieces.

65 Fizeste bem ao teu servo, Senhor, segundo a tua palavra. 66 Ensina-me bom juízo e ciência, pois cri nos teus mandamentos. 67 Antes de ser afligido, andava errado; mas agora guardo a tua palavra. 68 Tu és bom e abençoador; ensina-me os teus estatutos. 69 Os soberbos forjaram mentiras contra mim; mas eu de todo o coração guardarei os teus preceitos. 70 Engrossa-se-lhes o coração como gordura, mas eu me alegro na tua lei. 71 Foi-me bom ter sido afligido, para que aprendesse os teus estatutos. 72 Melhor é para mim a lei da tua boca do que inúmeras riquezas em ouro ou prata.

65 Trata com bondade o teu servo, Senhor,
conforme a tua promessa.
66 Ensina-me o bom senso e o conhecimento,
pois confio em teus mandamentos.
67 Antes de ser castigado, eu andava desviado,
mas agora obedeço à tua palavra.
68 Tu és bom, e o que fazes é bom;
ensina-me os teus decretos.
69 Os arrogantes mancharam o meu nome
    com mentiras,
mas eu obedeço aos teus preceitos
    de todo o coração.
70 O coração deles é insensível,
    eu, porém, tenho prazer na tua lei.
71 Foi bom para mim ter sido castigado,
    para que aprendesse os teus decretos.
72 Para mim vale mais a lei que decretaste
    do que milhares de peças de prata e ouro.
