| Psalms 40:1 | Unto the end, a psalm for David himself. | I waited patiently for Jehovah; And he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. | <To the chief music-maker. Of David. A Psalm.> When I was waiting quietly for the Lord, his heart was turned to me, and he gave ear to my cry. | |
| Psalms 40:2 | Blessed is he that understandeth concerning the needy and the poor : the Lord will deliver him in the evil day. | He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay; And he set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. | He took me up out of a deep waste place, out of the soft and sticky earth; he put my feet on a rock, and made my steps certain. | |
| Psalms 40:3 | The Lord preserve him and give him life, and make him blessed upon the earth : and deliver him not up to the will of his enemies. | And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: Many shall see it, and fear, And shall trust in Jehovah. | And he put a new song in my mouth, even praise to our God; numbers have seen it with fear, and put their faith in the Lord. | |
| Psalms 40:4 | The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow : thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness. | Blessed is the man that maketh Jehovah his trust, And respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies. | Happy is the man who has faith in the Lord, and does not give honour to the men of pride or to those who are turned away to deceit. | |
| Psalms 40:5 | I said: O Lord, be thou merciful to me : heal my soul, for I have sinned against thee. | Many, O Jehovah 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. | O Lord my God, great are the wonders which you have done in your thought for us; it is not possible to put them out in order before you; when I would give an account of them, their number is greater than I may say. | |
| Psalms 40:6 | My enemies have spoken evils against me: when shall he die and his name perish? | Sacrifice and offering thou hast no delight in; Mine ears hast thou opened: Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not required. | You had no desire for offerings of beasts or fruits of the earth; ears you made for me: for burned offerings and sin offerings you made no request. | |
| Psalms 40:7 | And if he came in to see me, he spoke vain things : his heart gathered together iniquity to itself. He went out and spoke to the same purpose. | Then said I, Lo, I am come; In the roll of the book it is written of me: | Then I said, See, I come; it is recorded of me in the roll of the book, | |
| Psalms 40:8 | All my enemies whispered together against me : they devised evils to me. | I delight to do thy will, O my God; Yea, thy law is within my heart. | My delight is to do your pleasure, O my God; truly, your law is in my heart. | |
| Psalms 40:9 | They determined against me an unjust word : shall he that sleepeth rise again no more? | I have proclaimed glad tidings of righteousness in the great assembly; Lo, I will not refrain my lips, O Jehovah, thou knowest. | I have given news of righteousness in the great meeting; O Lord, you have knowledge that I have not kept back my words. | |
| Psalms 40:10 | For even the man of peace, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, hath greatly supplanted me. | I 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 assembly. | Your righteousness has not been folded away in my heart; I have made clear your true word and your salvation; I have not kept secret your mercy or your faith from the great meeting. | |
| Psalms 40:11 | But thou, O Lord, have mercy on me, and raise me up again : and I will requite them. | Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Jehovah; Let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me. | Take not away your gentle mercies from me, O Lord; let your mercy and your faith keep me safe for ever. | |
| Psalms 40:12 | By this I know, that thou hast had a good will for me : because my enemy shall not rejoice over me. | For innumerable evils have compassed me about; Mine iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; They are more than the hairs of my head; And my heart hath failed me. | For unnumbered evils are round about me; my sins have overtaken me, so that I am bent down with their weight; they are more than the hairs of my head, my strength is gone because of them. | |
| Psalms 40:13 | But thou hast upheld me by reason of my innocence : and hast established me in thy sight for ever. | Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me: Make haste to help me, O Jehovah. | Be pleased, O Lord, to take me out of danger; O Lord, come quickly and give me help. | |
| Psalms 40:14 | Blessed by the Lord the God of Israel from eternity to eternity. So be it. So be it. | Let them be put to shame and confounded together That seek after my soul to destroy it: Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor That delight in my hurt. | Let those who go after my soul for its destruction have shame and trouble together; let them be turned back and made foolish who take pleasure in my trouble. | |
