Psalms 40:1-4

1I waited patiently for the Lord; he inclined to me and heard my cry.

2He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure.

3He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the Lord.

4Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust, who does not turn to the proud, to those who go astray after a lie!
