Psalm 40:11–17
11 yWithhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord:
Let athy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12 For innumerable evils have bcompassed me about:
cMine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up;
ccThey are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore dmy heart †faileth me.
13 Be pleased, O Lord, eto deliver me:
O Lord, fmake haste to help me.
14 gLet them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it;
Let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
15 Let them be hdesolate for a reward of their shame
That isay unto me, Aha, aha.
16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee:
Let such as love thy salvation ksay continually, lThe Lord be magnified.
17 But mI am poor and needy; yet nthe Lord thinketh upon me:
Thou art my help and my deliverer;
Make no tarrying, O my God.
