Quicken me after thy lovingkindness; so shall I keep the testimony of thy mouth.

In Psalm 119:146, the same pattern appears: 'save me, and I shall keep thy testimonies'—deliverance leads to obedience.

In Psalm 119:40, 'quicken me in thy righteousness' echoes the same plea—here the ground is God's righteousness rather than His lovingkindness.
