For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
[1] I waited patiently for Jehovah;
And he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.
[2] He brought me up also out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay;
And he set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.
[3] And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God:
Many shall see it, and fear,
And shall trust in Jehovah.
[4] Blessed is the man that maketh Jehovah his trust,
And respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
[5] Many, O Jehovah my God, are the wonderful works which thou hast done,
And thy thoughts which are to us-ward:
They cannot be set in order unto thee;
If I would declare and speak of them,
They are more than can be numbered.
[6] Sacrifice and offering thou hast no delight in;
Mine ears hast thou opened:
Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not required.
[7] Then said I, Lo, I am come;
In the roll of the book 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 proclaimed glad tidings of righteousness in the great assembly;
Lo, I will not refrain my lips,
O Jehovah, 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 assembly.
[11] Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Jehovah;
Let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
[12] For innumerable evils have compassed me about;
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 hath failed me.
[13] Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me:
Make haste to help me, O Jehovah.
[14] Let them be put to shame and confounded together
That seek after my soul to destroy it:
Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor
That delight in my hurt.
[15] Let them be desolate by reason of their shame
That say unto me, Aha, aha.
[16] Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee:
Let such as love thy salvation say continually,
Jehovah be magnified.
[17] But I am poor and needy;
Yet the Lord thinketh upon me:
Thou art my help and my deliverer;
Make no tarrying, O my God.
