40 How I long for Your precepts! Give me life through Your righteousness.
41 Let Your faithful love come to me, Lord, Your salvation, as You promised.
42 Then I can answer the one who taunts me, for I trust in Your word.
43 Never take the word of truth from my mouth,for I hope in Your judgments.
44 I will always obey Your instruction,forever and ever.
45 I will walk freely in an open place because I seek Your precepts.
46 I will speak of Your decrees before kingsand not be ashamed.
