Book 19 : PSALMS - Chapter 040
040:001
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
040:002
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
040:003
Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and
respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies
040:004
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
040:005
Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast
thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not
required
040:006
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is
written of me
040:007
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my
heart
040:008
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I
have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest
040:009
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
040:010
Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy
lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me
040:011
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
040:012
Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help
me
040:013
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
040:014
Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto
me, Aha, aha
040:015
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let
such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be
magnified
040:016
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
