for my (S)hope is in your rules.
44 I will keep your law continually,
forever and ever,
45 and I shall walk (T)in a wide place,
for I have (U)sought your precepts.
46 I will also speak of your testimonies (V)before kings
and shall not be put to shame,
47 for I (W)find my delight in your commandments,
which I love.
48 I will (X)lift up my hands toward your commandments, which I love,
