Verse 71 is found in chapter 119 of Psalms. Psalm 119 is an extensive acrostic poem devoted to God’s word and instruction. Its different stanzas explore obedience, suffering, persecution, hope, wisdom, and the desire to know the commandments. The repetition of terms related to law, testimonies, statutes, and precepts does not represent mere monotony, but multiple dimensions of divine revelation. The psalm shows that God’s word guides both daily life and the believer’s response to affliction.

Foi-me bom ter sido afligido, para que aprendesse os teus estatutos.
我受苦是與我有益, 為要使我學習你的律例。
