psalm_Chapter 40
I waited patiently for the Lord. He listened to my plea.
He pulled me up from the pit of calamity, from the mud, and made my feet stand on a rock, making my steps steady.
He made me sing a new song at my mouth, praising the word of our God. Many will see and fear, and trust in the Lord.
Blessed is he who trusts in the Lord and disregards arrogance and those who lean towards falsehood.
O Lord my God, your wonders and your thoughts towards us are many, and I cannot declare them to you. If we want to Chen Ming, there are countless things to do.
Sacrifices and gifts, you are not happy. You have opened my ears. The burnt offering and the sin offering are not what you require.
At that time, I said, look, I’m here. My story has already been recorded in the scriptures.
My God, I am willing to do according to your will. Your law is in my heart.
I promote the good news of justice at the conference. I will not stop my lips. O Lord, this is what you know.
I have never hidden your righteousness in my heart. I have declared your faithfulness and your salvation. I have never concealed your kindness and honesty during the conference.
O Lord, do not withhold your mercy from me. May your love and honesty always bless me.
Because countless troubles surround me. My sins have caught up with me, making me unable to hold my head high. This sin is more than my hair. I feel a chill in my heart.
O Lord, please be kind and rescue me. O Lord, quickly help me.
May those who seek me and seek to destroy my life be ashamed and ashamed together. May those who rejoice in my suffering step back and suffer humiliation.
May those who say to me, Aha, Aha, perish in shame.
May all those who seek you be happy and joyful because of you. May those who love your salvation always say, ‘Exaggerate the Lord.’.
But I am poor and impoverished, and the Lord still cares for me. You are helping me, rescuing me. God, please do not delay.
