Psalm 118:38-50 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

38. Station your eloquence with your servant, along with your fear.

39. Cut off my disgrace, which I have taken up, for your judgments are delightful.

40. Behold, I have longed for your commandments. Revive me in your fairness.

41. VAU. And let your mercy overwhelm me, O Lord: your salvation according to your eloquence.

42. And I will respond to those who reproach me by word, for I have hoped in your words.

43. And do not utterly take away the word of truth from my mouth. For in your judgments, I have hoped beyond hope.

44. And I will always keep your law, in this age and forever and ever.

45. And I have wandered far and wide, because I was seeking your commandments.

46. And I spoke of your testimonies in the sight of kings, and I was not confounded.

47. And I meditated on your commandments, which I loved.

48. And I lifted up my hands to your commandments, which I loved. And I was trained in your justifications.

49. ZAIN. Be mindful of your word to your servant, by which you have given me hope.

50. This has consoled me in my humiliation, for your word has revived me.
