- 1. ¶ I WAITED patiently for the LORD; and he turned towards me and heard my supplication.
- 2. He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the mire of destruction, and set my feet upon a rock and established my goings.
- 3. And he has put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God, that many shall see it and rejoice and trust in the LORD.
- 4. Blessed is the man whose trust is in the name of the LORD, and who returns not to vanity; neither to lying conversation.
- 5. Many are thy works which thou hast done for us, O LORD our God, and thy wonderful care for us; I have declared that they are too many to be numbered; there is no one like unto thee.
- 6. ¶ Sacrifices and offerings thou didst not desire; but as for me, I now have understanding; burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
- 7. Then said I, Lo, I come; in the beginning of the books, it is written of me,
- 8. I delight to do thy will, O my God; yea, thy law is within my heart.
- 9. I have preached thy righteousness in the great congregation; lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
- 10. 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 congregation.
- 11. ¶ Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD; let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
- 12. For innumerable evils have surrounded me; 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 fails me.
- 13. Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; O LORD, continue to help me.
- 14. Let them be ashamed and confounded who seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame who wish me evil.
- 15. Let them be overthrown for their disgraceful conduct who say to me, Aha, aha!
- 16. Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee; let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
- 17. But I am poor and needy; O my LORD, they have conspired against me; help me and deliver me; do not tarry, O my God.
