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.
