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.
67. Before I was afflicted I went astray,but now I hold to your promise.
68. You are good and do what is good;teach me your statutes.
69. The arrogant smear me with lies,but I keep your precepts with all my heart.
70. Their hearts are gross and fat;as for me, your law is my delight.
71. It was good for me to be afflicted,in order to learn your statutes.
72. The law of your mouth is more precious to methan heaps of silver and gold.
73. Your hands made me and fashioned me;give me understanding to learn your commandments.
74. Those who fear you rejoice to see me,because I hope in your word.
