39. Turn away my reproach whereof I am afraid; for thy judgments are good.
40. Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: quicken me in thy righteousness.
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.
48. I will lift up my hands also unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.
49. Remember the word unto thy servant, because thou hast made me to hope.
