Psalms 119:70-82
-
70 Their heart is as fat as grease; but I delight in thy law.
-
71 It is good for me that I have been afflicted; that I might learn thy statutes.
-
72 The law of thy mouth is better unto me than thousands of gold and silver.
-
73 Thy hands have made me and fashioned me: give me understanding, that I may learn thy commandments.
-
74 They that fear thee will be glad when they see me; because I have hoped in thy word.
-
75 I know, O LORD, that thy judgments are right, and that thou in faithfulness hast afflicted me.
-
76 Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to thy word unto thy servant.
-
77 Let thy tender mercies come unto me, that I may live: for thy law is my delight.
-
78 Let the proud be ashamed; for they dealt perversely with me without a cause: but I will meditate in thy precepts.
-
79 Let those that fear thee turn unto me, and those that have known thy testimonies.
-
80 Let my heart be sound in thy statutes; that I be not ashamed.
-
81 My soul fainteth for thy salvation: but I hope in thy word.
-
82 Mine eyes fail for thy word, saying, When wilt thou comfort me?
