PS-40:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. I waited
patiently for the
LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
PS-40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the
miry clay,
and set my feet upon a rock, [and] established my goings.
PS-40:3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, [even] praise
unto our God:
many shall see [it], and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.
PS-40:4 Blessed [is] that man that maketh the LORD his trust,
and respecteth
not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
PS-40:5 Many, O LORD my God, [are] thy wonderful works [which]
thou hast done,
and thy thoughts [which are] to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned
up in order
unto thee: [if] I would declare and speak [of them], they are
more than can be
numbered.
PS-40:6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears
hast thou
opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
PS-40:7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book [it
is] written of
me,
PS-40:8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law [is]
within my heart.
PS-40:9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation:
lo, I have
not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
PS-40:10 I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I
have declared thy
faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy
lovingkindness and
thy truth from the great congregation.
PS-40:11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD:
let thy
lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
PS-40:12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine
iniquities have
taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are
more than the
hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
PS-40:13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste
to help me.
PS-40:14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek
after my soul
to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that
wish me evil.
PS-40:15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that
say unto me,
Aha, aha.
PS-40:16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in
thee: let such as
love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
PS-40:17 But I [am] poor and needy; [yet] the Lord thinketh upon
me: thou
[art] my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
