Psalms 40 (NET) New English Translation

1 For the music director; By David, a psalm. I relied completely on the LORD, and he turned toward me and heard my cry for help.
2 He lifted me out of the watery pit, out of the slimy mud. He placed my feet on a rock and gave me secure footing.
3 He gave me reason to sing a new song, praising our God. May many see what God has done, so that they might swear allegiance to him and trust in the LORD!
4 How blessed is the one who trusts in the LORD and does not seek help from the proud or from liars!
5 O LORD, my God, you have accomplished many things; you have done amazing things and carried out your purposes for us. No one can thwart you! I want to declare them and talk about them, but they are too numerous to recount!
6 Receiving sacrifices and offerings are not your primary concern. You make that quite clear to me! You do not ask for burnt sacrifices and sin offerings.
7 Then I say, "Look! I come! What is written in the scroll pertains to me.
8 I want to do what pleases you, my God. Your law dominates my thoughts."
9 I have told the great assembly about your justice. Look! I spare no words! O LORD, you know this is true.
10 I have not failed to tell about your justice; I spoke about your reliability and deliverance; I have not neglected to tell the great assembly about your loyal love and faithfulness.
11 O LORD, you do not withhold your compassion from me. May your loyal love and faithfulness continually protect me!
12 For innumerable dangers surround me. My sins overtake me so I am unable to see; they outnumber the hairs of my head so my strength fails me.
13 Please be willing, O LORD, to rescue me! O LORD, hurry and help me!
14 May those who are trying to snatch away my life be totally embarrassed and ashamed! May those who want to harm me be turned back and ashamed!
15 May those who say to me, "Aha! Aha!" be humiliated and disgraced!
16 May all those who seek you be happy and rejoice in you! May those who love to experience your deliverance say continually, "May the LORD be praised!"
17 I am oppressed and needy! May the Lord pay attention to me! You are my helper and my deliverer! O my God, do not delay!
1 To the chief Musician, H5329 A Psalm H4210 of David. H1732 I waited H6960 patiently H6960 for the LORD; H3068 and he inclined H5186 unto H413 me , and heard H8085 my cry. H7775
2 He brought me up H5927 also out of a horrible H7588 pit H4480 H953 , out of the miry H3121 clay H4480 H2916 , and set H6965 my feet H7272 upon H5921 a rock, H5553 and established H3559 my goings. H838
3 And he hath put H5414 a new H2319 song H7892 in my mouth, H6310 even praise H8416 unto our God: H430 many H7227 shall see H7200 it , and fear, H3372 and shall trust H982 in the LORD. H3068
4 Blessed H835 is that man H1397 that H834 maketh H7760 the LORD H3068 his trust, H4009 and respecteth H6437 H413 not H3808 the proud, H7295 nor such as turn aside H7750 to lies. H3577
5 Many H7227 , O LORD H3068 my God, H430 are thy wonderful works H6381 which thou H859 hast done, H6213 and thy thoughts H4284 which are to H413 usward : they cannot H369 be reckoned up in order H6186 unto thee: H413 if I would declare H5046 and speak H1696 of them , they are more H6105 than can be numbered H4480 H5608 .
6 Sacrifice H2077 and offering H4503 thou didst not H3808 desire; H2654 mine ears H241 hast thou opened: H3738 burnt offering H5930 and sin offering H2401 hast thou not H3808 required. H7592
7 Then H227 said H559 I, Lo, H2009 I come: H935 in the volume H4039 of the book H5612 it is written H3789 of H5921 me,
8 I delight H2654 to do H6213 thy will, H7522 O my God: H430 yea , thy law H8451 is within H8432 my heart. H4578
9 I have preached H1319 righteousness H6664 in the great H7227 congregation: H6951 lo, H2009 I have not H3808 refrained H3607 my lips, H8193 O LORD, H3068 thou H859 knowest. H3045
10 I have not H3808 hid H3680 thy righteousness H6666 within H8432 my heart; H3820 I have declared H559 thy faithfulness H530 and thy salvation: H8668 I have not H3808 concealed H3582 thy lovingkindness H2617 and thy truth H571 from the great H7227 congregation. H6951
11 Withhold H3607 not H3808 thou H859 thy tender mercies H7356 from H4480 me , O LORD: H3068 let thy lovingkindness H2617 and thy truth H571 continually H8548 preserve H5341 me.
12 For H3588 innumerable H5704 H369 H4557 evils H7451 have compassed me about H661 : H5921 mine iniquities H5771 have taken hold H5381 upon me , so that I am not H3808 able H3201 to look up; H7200 they are more H6105 than the hairs H4480 H8185 of mine head: H7218 therefore my heart H3820 faileth H5800 me.
13 Be pleased, H7521 O LORD, H3068 to deliver H5337 me : O LORD, H3068 make haste H2363 to help H5833 me.
14 Let them be ashamed H954 and confounded H2659 together H3162 that seek after H1245 my soul H5315 to destroy H5595 it ; let them be driven H5472 backward H268 and put to shame H3637 that wish H2655 me evil. H7451
15 Let them be desolate H8074 for H5921 a reward H6118 of their shame H1322 that say H559 unto me, Aha, H1889 aha. H1889
16 Let all H3605 those that seek H1245 thee rejoice H7797 and be glad H8055 in thee : let such as love H157 thy salvation H8668 say H559 continually, H8548 The LORD H3068 be magnified. H1431
17 But I H589 am poor H6041 and needy; H34 yet the Lord H136 thinketh H2803 upon me: thou H859 art my help H5833 and my deliverer; H6403 make no H408 tarrying, H309 O my God. H430
