Behold, I long for Your precepts; Revive me in Your righteousness.
41
Let Your mercies come also to me, O Lord-- Your salvation according to Your word.
42
So shall I have an answer for him who 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 ordinances.
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 love.
48
My hands also I will lift up to Your commandments, Which I love, And I will meditate on Your statutes.
49
Remember the word to Your servant, Upon which You have caused me to hope.
50
This is my comfort in my affliction, For Your word has given me life.
