The Psalms
40. fejezet
1. vers
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. I waited patiently for Yahweh. He turned to me, and heard my cry.
2. vers
He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay. He set my feet on a rock, and gave me a firm place to stand.
3. vers
He has put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in Yahweh.
4. vers
Blessed is the man who makes Yahweh his trust, and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies.
5. vers
Many, Yahweh, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can’t be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be counted.
6. vers
Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire. You have opened my ears. You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.
7. vers
Then I said, “Behold, I have come. It is written about me in the book in the scroll.
8. vers
I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”
9. vers
I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, Yahweh, you know.
10. vers
I have not hidden your righteousness within my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have not concealed your loving kindness and your truth from the great assembly.
11. vers
Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, Yahweh. Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.
12. vers
For innumerable evils have surrounded me. My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up. They are more than the hairs of my head. My heart has failed me.
13. vers
Be pleased, Yahweh, to deliver me. Hurry to help me, Yahweh.
14. vers
Let them be disappointed and confounded together who seek after my soul to destroy it. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.
15. vers
Let them be desolate by reason of their shame that tell me, “Aha! Aha!”
16. vers
Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let such as love your salvation say continually, “Let Yahweh be exalted!”
17. vers
But I am poor and needy. May the Lord think about me. You are my help and my deliverer. Don’t delay, my God.
