Psalms 119:40-49

⁴⁰Behold, I have longed after Thy precepts; quicken me in Thy righteousness.

⁴¹VAV. Let Thy mercies also come unto me, O LORD, even Thy salvation, according to Thy word;

⁴²That I may have an answer for him that taunteth me; for I trust in Thy word.

⁴³And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; for I hope in Thine ordinances;

⁴⁴So shall I observe Thy law continually for ever and ever;

⁴⁵And I will walk at ease, for I have sought Thy precepts;

⁴⁶I will also speak of Thy testimonies before kings, and will not be ashamed.

⁴⁷And I will delight myself in Thy commandments, which I have loved.

⁴⁸I will lift up my hands also unto Thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in Thy statutes.

⁴⁹ZAIN. Remember the word unto Thy servant, because Thou hast made me to hope.
