Psalms 40
He turned to me, and heard my cry.
and gave me a firm place to stand.
Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in Yahweh.
and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies.
If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be counted.
You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.
It is written about me in the book in the scroll.
Yes, your law is within my heart.”
Behold, I will not seal my lips, Yahweh, you know.
I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly.
Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.
My heart has failed me.
Hurry to help me, Yahweh.
Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.
Let them be desolate by reason of their shame that tell me, “Aha! Aha!”
Let such as love your salvation say continually, “Let Yahweh be exalted!”
Don’t delay, my God.
