40. How I long for your precepts! In your righteousness preserve my life.

41. May your unfailing love come to me, Lord, your salvation, according to your promise;

42. then I can answer anyone who taunts me, for I trust in your word.

43. Never take your word of truth from my mouth, for I have put my hope in your laws.

44. I will always obey your law, for ever and ever.

45. I will walk about in freedom, for I have sought out your precepts.

46. I will speak of your statutes before kings and will not be put to shame,

47. for I delight in your commands because I love them.
