⁶⁷ Before I was ^(A)afflicted I went astray,
But now I keep Your word.

⁷¹ It is good for me that I have been afflicted,
That I may learn Your statutes.

⁷⁵ I know, O Lord, ^(A)that Your judgments are ^[a]right,
And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

²¹ For the Lord will rise up as at Mount ^(A)Perazim,
He will be angry as in the Valley of ^(B)Gibeon—
That He may do His work, ^(C)His awesome work,
And bring to pass His act, His ^[a]unusual act.
