3
And he has put a new song in my mouth,
even praise unto our God; many shall see
it and fear and shall wait on the LORD.
4
Blessed
is that man that makes the LORD his trust and does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5
Thou hast increased, O LORD my God, thy wonderful works
which thou hast done and thy thoughts regarding us; they are beyond our ability to express, declare, or speak; they cannot be told.
6
Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened; burnt offering and sin offering thou hast not required.
7
Then said I, Behold, I come; in the volume of the book
it is written of me,
8
I delight to do thy will, O my God; thy law
is within my bowels.
9
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation; behold, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
10
I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy truth and thy salvation; I have not concealed thy mercy and thy truth from the great congregation.
11
Do not withhold thy tender mercies from me, O LORD; let thy mercy and thy truth continually preserve me.
12
For innumerable evils have compassed me about; my iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to see; they are more than the hairs of my head; therefore my heart fails me.
13
Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; O LORD, make haste to help me.
