3(40:4) And he placed in my mouth a new song, a praise unto our God: many will see it, and fear; and they will trust in the Lord.
4(40:5) Happy is the man that maketh the Lord his trust, and turneth not unto the proud, nor such as stray aside unto lies.
5(40:6) Many things hast thou done, O Lord my God; thy wonderful deeds and thy thoughts toward us—there is none to be compared unto thee—will I tell and speak of, though they are too numerous to be counted.
6(40:7) Sacrifice and meat-offering thou desirest not—ears hast thou hollowed out unto me—burnt-offering and sin-offering thou demandest not.
7(40:8) Then said I, Lo, I come: in the roll of the book it is written down for me;
8(40:9) To fulfill thy will, O my God, do I desire; and thy law is within my heart.
9(40:10) I announce thy righteousness in the great assembly: lo, I will not refrain my lips, O Lord, thou well knowest it.
10(40:11) Thy righteousness have I never hidden within my heart; thy faithfulness and thy salvation have I spoken of openly: I have not concealed thy kindness and thy truth before the great assembly.
11(40:12) Do thou, O Lord, not withhold thy mercies from me: let thy kindness and thy truth continually watch over me.
12(40:13) For evils without number have compassed me about; my iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to see: they are more numerous than the hairs of my head; and my courage hath forsaken me.
13(40:14) Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; O Lord, hasten to my help.
