Psalm 119:71-77 (New International Version)
71
It was good for me to be afflicted1 so that I might learn your decrees.
72
The law from your mouth is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.2
Yodh
73 Your hands made me3 and formed me; give me understanding to learn your commands. 74 May those who fear you rejoice4 when they see me, for I have put my hope in your word.5 75 I know, O Lord, that your laws are righteous,6 and in faithfulness7 you have afflicted me. 76 May your unfailing love8 be my comfort, according to your promise9 to your servant. 77 Let your compassion10 come to me that I may live, for your law is my delight.11Scripture quoted by permission.
