Psalm 119 – Teth:

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 afflicted I went astray, 
    but now I keep your word. 
You are good and do good; 
    teach me your statutes. 
The insolent smear me with lies, 
    but with my whole heart I keep your precepts; 
    their heart is unfeeling like fat, 
    but I delight in your law. 
It is good for me that I was afflicted, 
    that I might learn your statutes. 
The law of your mouth is better to me 
    than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
