Psalms 40:13-17
13 aBe pleased, O Lord, to bdeliver me!O Lord, cmake haste to help me!
14 dLet those be put to shame and disappointed altogether
who seek to snatch away my life;
let those be eturned back and brought to dishonor
who delight in my hurt!
15Let those be appalled because of their shame
who fsay to me, “Aha, Aha!”
16 But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation
gsay continually, “Great is the Lord!”
17As for me, I am hpoor and needy,
but ithe Lord takes thought for me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
do not delay, O my God!
