| 40:1 |
I waited patiently for the LORD; he turned to me and heard my cry.
|
| 40:2 |
He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.
|
| 40:3 |
He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.
|
| 40:4 |
Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.
|
| 40:5 |
Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders you have done. The things you planned for us no one can recount to you; were I to speak and tell of them, they would be too many to declare.
|
| 40:6 |
Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but my ears you have pierced,; burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require.
|
| 40:7 |
Then I said, "Here I am, I have come-- it is written about me in the scroll.
|
| 40:8 |
I desire to do your will, O my God; your law is within my heart."
|
| 40:9 |
I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly; I do not seal my lips, as you know, O LORD.
|
| 40:10 |
I do not hide your righteousness in my heart; I speak of your faithfulness and salvation. I do not conceal your love and your truth from the great assembly.
|
| 40:11 |
Do not withhold your mercy from me, O LORD; may your love and your truth always protect me.
|
| 40:12 |
For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me.
|
| 40:13 |
Be pleased, O LORD, to save me; O LORD, come quickly to help me.
|
| 40:14 |
May all who seek to take my life be put to shame and confusion; may all who desire my ruin be turned back in disgrace.
|
| 40:15 |
May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!" be appalled at their own shame.
|
| 40:16 |
But may all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you; may those who love your salvation always say, "The LORD be exalted!"
|
| 40:17 |
Yet I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my help and my deliverer; O my God, do not delay.
