40 I long to obey your commandments!Renew my life with your goodness.
41 lord, give me your unfailing love,the salvation that you promised me.
42 Then I can answer those who taunt me,for I trust in your word.
43 Do not snatch your word of truth from me,for your regulations are my only hope.
44 I will keep on obeying your instructionsforever and ever.
45 I will walk in freedom,for I have devoted myself to your commandments.
46 I will speak to kings about your laws,and I will not be ashamed.
