Psalm 40:1{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} I waited6960 patiently6960{Heb. In waiting I waited} for the LORD;3068 and he inclined5186 unto me, and heard8085 my cry.77752 He brought me up5927 also out of an horrible7588 pit,953{Heb. a pit of noise} out of the miry3121 clay,2916 and set6965 my feet7272 upon a rock,5553and established3559 my goings.8383 And he hath put5414 a new2319 song7892 in my mouth,6310even praise8416 unto our God:430 many7227 shall see7200it, and fear,3372 and shall trust982 in the LORD.30684 Blessed835is that man1397 that maketh7760 the LORD3068 his trust,4009 and respecteth6437 not the proud,7295 nor such as turn aside7750 to lies.35775 Many,7227 O LORD3068 my God,430are thy wonderful6381 works which thou hast done,6213 and thy thoughts4284whichare to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order6186 unto thee:{Or, none can order them unto thee}if I would declare5046 and speak1696ofthem, they are more6105 than can be numbered.5608
Psalm 40:6 Sacrifice2077 and offering4503 thou didst not desire;2654 mine ears241 hast thou opened:3738{Heb. digged} burnt offering5930 and sin offering2401 hast thou not required.75927 Then said559 I, Lo, I come:935 in the volume4039 of the book5612itis written3789 of me,
8 I delight2654 to do6213 thy will,7522 O my God:430 yea, thy law8451is within8432 my heart.4578{Heb. in the midst of my bowels}9 I have preached1319 righteousness6664 in the great7227 congregation:6951 lo, I have not refrained3607 my lips,8193 O LORD,3068 thou knowest.304510 I have not hid3680 thy righteousness6666 within8432 my heart;3820 I have declared559 thy faithfulness530 and thy salvation:8668 I have not concealed3582 thy lovingkindness2617 and thy truth571 from the great7227 congregation.695111 Withhold3607 not thou thy tender mercies7356 from me, O LORD:3068 let thy lovingkindness2617 and thy truth571 continually8548 preserve5341 me.
12 For innumerable4557 evils7451 have compassed661 me about: mine iniquities5771 have taken hold5381 upon me, so that I am not able3201 to look up;7200 they are more6105 than the hairs8185 of mine head:7218 therefore my heart3820 faileth5800{Heb. forsaketh} me.
13 Be pleased,7521 O LORD,3068 to deliver5337 me: O LORD,3068 make haste2363 to help5833 me.
14 Let them be ashamed954 and confounded2659 together3162 that seek1245 after my soul5315 to destroy5595 it; let them be driven5472 backward268 and put to shame3637 that wish2655 me evil.745115 Let them be desolate8074 for a reward6118 of their shame1322 that say559 unto me, Aha,1889 aha.188916 Let all those that seek1245 thee rejoice7797 and be glad8055 in thee: let such as love157 thy salvation8668 say559 continually,8548 The LORD3068 be magnified.143117 But I am poor6041 and needy;34yet the Lord136 thinketh2803 upon me: thou art my help5833 and my deliverer;6403 make no tarrying,309 O my God.430
