40. Behold, I have longed after your precepts: revive me in your righteousness.
41. Let your mercies come also unto me, O LORD, even your salvation, according to your word.
42. So shall I have an answer for him that reproaches me: for I trust in your word.
43. And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in your judgments.
44. So shall I keep your law continually forever and ever.
45. And I will walk at liberty: for I seek your precepts.
46. I will speak of your testimonies also before kings, and will not be ashamed.
47. And I will delight myself in your commandments, which I have loved.
48. My hands also will I lift up unto your commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in your statutes.
49. Remember the word unto your servant, upon which you have caused me to hope.
50. This is my comfort in my affliction: for your word has revived me.
51. The proud have had me greatly in derision: yet have I not turned from your law.
52. I remembered your judgments of old, O LORD; and have comforted myself.
53. Horror has taken hold upon me because of the wicked that forsake your law.
54. Your statutes have been my songs in the house of my pilgrimage.
55. I have remembered your name, O LORD, in the night, and have kept your law.
56. This I had, because I kept your precepts.
57. You are my portion, O LORD: I have said that I would keep your words.
