46. I will talk about your covenant laws to kings. I will not be put to shame.

47. I take delight in obeying your commands because I love them.

48. I praise your commands, and I love them. I spend time thinking about your orders.

49. Remember what you have said to me. You have given me hope.

50. Even when I suffer, I am comforted because you promised to keep me alive.

51. Proud people are always making fun of me. But I don't turn away from your law.

52. Lord, I remember the laws you gave long ago. I find comfort in them.

53. I am very angry because evil people have turned away from your law.

54. No matter where I live, I sing about your orders.

55. Lord, during the night I remember who you are. That's why I keep your law.

56. I have really done my best to obey your rules.

57. Lord, you are everything I need. I have promised to obey your words.

58. I have looked to you with all my heart. Be kind to me as you have promised.

59. I have thought about the way I live. And I have decided to follow your covenant laws.
