40. Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.ו VAU.
41. Let thy mercies also come unto me, O Lord, even thy salvation, according to thy word.
42. So shall I have an answer for him that reproacheth me; for I trust in thy word.
43. And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I have hoped in thy judgments.
44. So shall I observe thy law continually for ever and ever.
45. And I will walk at liberty; for I have sought thy precepts.
46. I will also speak of thy testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.
47. And I will delight myself in thy commandments, which I have loved.
