39Take away the insults I dread, for your righteous judgments are good.
40See, I have longed for your instructions; revive me in your righteousness.
41Yahweh, give me your unfailing love— your salvation, according to your promise;
42then I will have a reply for the one who mocks me, for I trust in your word.
43Do not take the word of truth from my mouth, for my hope is in your righteous decrees.
44I will observe your law continually, forever and ever.
45I will walk securely, for I seek your instructions.
46I will speak of your solemn commands before kings and will not be ashamed.
