You have dealt
well with your servant, O Lord,
according to your word.
Teach me good
judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments.
Before I was
humbled I went astray, but now I keep your word.
You are good and
do good; teach me your statutes.
The arrogant smear
me with lies, but with my whole heart I keep your precepts.
Their hearts are
fat and gross, but I delight in your law.
It is good for me
that I was humbled, so that I might learn your statutes.
The law of your
mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
