Psalm 40:7-13 English Standard Version (ESV)

7. Then I said, “Behold, I have come;in the scroll of the book it is written of me:

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

9. I have told the glad news of deliverancein the great congregation;behold, I have not restrained my lips, as you know, O Lord.

10. I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulnessfrom the great congregation.

11. As for you, O Lord, you will not restrainyour mercy from me;your steadfast love and your faithfulness willever preserve me!

12. For evils have encompassed mebeyond number;my iniquities have overtaken me,and I cannot see;they are more than the hairs of my head;my heart fails me.

13. Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me!O Lord, make haste to help me!
