67. Before I was afflicted, I was going astray, but now I heed your word.
68. You are good and do good; teach me your statutes.
69. The arrogant smear me with lies; I keep your precepts with my whole heart.
70. Their heart is insensitive like fat; As for me, I take delight in your law.
71. It is good for me that I was afflicted, so that I might learn your statutes.
72. The law of your mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver coins.
73. Your hands have made me and established me; give me understanding that I may learn your commands.
