PSALMS 40:4-10

⁴Blessed is the man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

⁵Many, O LORD my God, are the wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be set in order unto thee; if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

⁶Sacrifice and offering thou hast no delight in; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

⁷Then said I, Lo, I am come; in the roll of the book it is written of me:

⁸I delight to do thy will, O my God; yea, thy law is within my heart.

⁹I have published righteousness in the great congregation; lo, I will not refrain my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.

¹⁰I 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.
