Psalms 40:1
To the chief Musician{H5329}{H8764)}, A Psalm{H4210} of David{H1732}. I waited{H6960}{H8765)} patiently{H6960}{H8763)} for the LORD{H3068}; and he inclined{H5186}{H8799)} unto me, and heard{H8085}{H8799)} my cry{H7775}.
Psalms 40:2
He brought me up{H5927}{H8686)} also out of an horrible{H7588} pit{H953}, out of the miry{H3121} clay{H2916}, and set{H6965}{H8686)} my feet{H7272} upon a rock{H5553}, and established{H3559}{H8790)} my goings{H838}.
Psalms 40:3
And he hath put{H5414}{H8799)} a new{H2319} song{H7892} in my mouth{H6310}, even praise{H8416} unto our God{H430}: many{H7227} shall see{H7200}{H8799)} it, and fear{H3372}{H8799)}, and shall trust{H982}{H8799)} in the LORD{H3068}.
Psalms 40:4
Blessed{H835} is that man{H1397} that maketh{H7760}{H8804)} the LORD{H3068} his trust{H4009}, and respecteth{H6437}{H8804)} not the proud{H7295}, nor such as turn aside{H7750}{H8802)} to lies{H3577}.
Psalms 40:5
Many{H7227}, O LORD{H3068} my God{H430}, are thy wonderful{H6381}{H8737)} works which thou hast done{H6213}{H8804)}, and thy thoughts{H4284} which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order{H6186}{H8800)} unto thee: if I would declare{H5046}{H8686)} and speak{H1696}{H8762)} of them, they are more{H6105}{H8804)} than can be numbered{H5608}{H8763)}.
Psalms 40:6
Sacrifice{H2077} and offering{H4503} thou didst not desire{H2654}{H8804)}; mine ears{H241} hast thou opened{H3738}{H8804)}: burnt offering{H5930} and sin offering{H2401} hast thou not required{H7592}{H8804)}.
Psalms 40:7
Then said{H559}{H8804)} I, Lo, I come{H935}{H8804)}: in the volume{H4039} of the book{H5612} it is written{H3789}{H8803)} of me,
Psalms 40:8
I delight{H2654}{H8804)} to do{H6213}{H8800)} thy will{H7522}, O my God{H430}: yea, thy law{H8451} is within{H8432} my heart{H4578}.
Psalms 40:9
I have preached{H1319}{H8765)} righteousness{H6664} in the great{H7227} congregation{H6951}: lo, I have not refrained{H3607}{H8799)} my lips{H8193}, O LORD{H3068}, thou knowest{H3045}{H8804)}.
Psalms 40:10
I have not hid{H3680}{H8765)} thy righteousness{H6666} within{H8432} my heart{H3820}; I have declared{H559}{H8804)} thy faithfulness{H530} and thy salvation{H8668}: I have not concealed{H3582}{H8765)} thy lovingkindness{H2617} and thy truth{H571} from the great{H7227} congregation{H6951}.
Psalms 40:11
Withhold{H3607}{H8799)} not thou thy tender mercies{H7356} from me, O LORD{H3068}: let thy lovingkindness{H2617} and thy truth{H571} continually{H8548} preserve{H5341}{H8799)} me.
Psalms 40:12
For innumerable{H4557} evils{H7451} have compassed{H661}{H8804)} me about: mine iniquities{H5771} have taken hold{H5381}{H8689)} upon me, so that I am not able{H3201}{H8804)} to look up{H7200}{H8800)}; they are more{H6105}{H8804)} than the hairs{H8185} of mine head{H7218}: therefore my heart{H3820} faileth{H5800}{H8804)} me.
Psalms 40:13
Be pleased{H7521}{H8798)}, O LORD{H3068}, to deliver{H5337}{H8687)} me: O LORD{H3068}, make haste{H2363}{H8798)} to help{H5833} me.
Psalms 40:14
Let them be ashamed{H954}{H8799)} and confounded{H2659}{H8799)} together{H3162} that seek{H1245}{H8764)} after my soul{H5315} to destroy{H5595}{H8800)} it; let them be driven{H5472}{H8735)} backward{H268} and put to shame{H3637}{H8735)} that wish{H2655} me evil{H7451}.
Psalms 40:15
Let them be desolate{H8074}{H8799)} for a reward{H6118} of their shame{H1322} that say{H559}{H8802)} unto me, Aha{H1889}, aha{H1889}.
Psalms 40:16
Let all those that seek{H1245}{H8764)} thee rejoice{H7797}{H8799)} and be glad{H8055}{H8799)} in thee: let such as love{H157}{H8802)} thy salvation{H8668} say{H559}{H8799)} continually{H8548}, The LORD{H3068} be magnified{H1431}{H8799)}.
Psalms 40:17
But I am poor{H6041} and needy{H34}; yet the Lord{H136} thinketh{H2803}{H8799)} upon me: thou art my help{H5833} and my deliverer{H6403}{H8764)}; make no tarrying{H309}{H8762)}, O my God{H430}.
