19_PSA_40_01 to the chief Musician , A Psalm of David . I waited patiently for the LORD ; And he inclined unto me , And heard my cry .
19_PSA_40_02 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 .
19_PSA_40_03 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 .
19_PSA_40_04 blessed [ Is ] that man that maketh the LORD his trust , And respecteth not the proud , nor such as turn aside to lies .
19_PSA_40_05 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 .
19_PSA_40_06 sacrifice And offering thou didst not desire ; mine ears hast thou opened : burnt offering And sin offering hast thou not required .
19_PSA_40_07 Then said I , Lo , I come : in the volume of the book [ it Is ] written of me ,
19_PSA_40_08 I delight to do thy will , O my God : yea , thy law [ Is ] within my heart .
19_PSA_40_09 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation : Lo , I have not refrained my lips , O LORD , thou knowest .
19_PSA_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 .
19_PSA_40_11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me , O LORD : let thy lovingkindness And thy truth continually preserve me .
19_PSA_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 .
19_PSA_40_13 be pleased , O LORD , to deliver me : O LORD , make haste to help me .
19_PSA_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 .
19_PSA_40_15 let them be desolate for A reward of their shame that say unto me , aha , aha .
19_PSA_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 .
19_PSA_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 .
