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.
51. The arrogant act altogether iniquitously, but I have not turned aside from your law.
52. I called to mind your judgments of antiquity, O Lord, and I was consoled.
53. Faintness has taken hold of me, because of the sinners, those who abandon your law.
54. Your justifications were the subject of my worthy singing, in the place of my pilgrimage.
55. During the night, I remembered your name, O Lord, and I kept your law.
