Psalms 40:12-17

¹²For evils that cannot be numbered have compassed me round. My transgressions have followed me up — I can bear it no more. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart has forsaken me.

¹³O Lord, be pleased to deliver me, haste to my help, O Lord.

¹⁴May those who are seeking my life be ashamed and confounded together; may those who delight in my hurt be defeated and brought to dishonour.

¹⁵May those who hurrah over me be dumbfounded because of their shame.

¹⁶But may all who seek after you rejoice and be glad in you. May all those eager for your aid, say, “Great is the Lord” evermore.

¹⁷I am weak and needy, yet the Lord cares for me. You are my help and deliverer; don't delay, my God.
