38. Confirm unto thy servant thy word, Which is in order unto the fear of thee.
39. Turn away my reproach whereof I am afraid; For thine ordinances are good.
40. Behold, I have longed after thy precepts: Quicken me in thy righteousness.
41. Let thy lovingkindnesses also come unto me, O Jehovah, Even thy salvation, according to thy word.
42. So shall I have an answer for him that reproacheth me; For I trust in thy word.
43. And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth; For I have hoped in thine ordinances.
44. So shall I observe thy law continually For ever and ever.
