37 Turn thou away my sight and eyesfrom viewing vanity;And in thy good and holy waybe pleas'd to quicken me.
38 Confirm to me thy gracious word,which I did gladly hear,Ev'n to thy servant, Lord, who isdevoted to thy fear.
39 Turn thou away my fear'd reproach;for good thy judgments be.
40 Lo, for thy precepts I have long'd;in thy truth quicken me.
41 Let thy sweet mercies also comeand visit me, O Lord;Ev'n thy benign salvation,according to thy word.
42 So shall I have wherewith I maygive him an answer just,Who spitefully reproacheth me;for in thy word I trust.
43 The word of truth out of my mouthtake thou not utterly;For on thy judgments righteousmy hope doth still rely.
