72. Better to me [is] the law of Thy mouth Than thousands of gold and silver!
73. [Yod.] Thy hands made me and establish me, Cause me to understand, and I learn Thy commands.
74. Those fearing Thee see me and rejoice, Because for Thy word I have hoped.
75. I have known, O Jehovah, That righteous [are] Thy judgments, And [in] faithfulness Thou hast afflicted me.
76. Let, I pray Thee, Thy kindness be to comfort me, According to Thy saying to Thy servant.
77. Meet me do Thy mercies, and I live, For Thy law [is] my delight.
78. Ashamed are the proud, For [with] falsehood they dealt perversely with me. I meditate in Thy precepts.
79. Those fearing Thee turn back to me, And those knowing Thy testimonies.
80. My heart is perfect in Thy statutes, So that I am not ashamed.
81. [Kaph.] Consumed for Thy salvation hath been my soul, For Thy word I have hoped.
