Psalms 119:75
73 Your hands have made me and fashioned me; give me understanding to learn Your commandments.
74 May those who fear You see me and rejoice, for I have hoped in Your word.
I know, O LORD, that Your judgments are righteous, and that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.
76 May Your loving devotion comfort me, I pray, according to Your promise to Your servant.
77 May Your compassion come to me, that I may live, for Your law is my delight.
