Psalms 40:1-4

1I 1waitedH6960 2patientlyH6960 for the LordH3068; And He inclinedH5186 to me and 3heardH8085 my cryH7775.2He broughtH5927 me up out of the 4pitH953 of destructionH7588, out of the 5miryH3121 clayH2916, And 6He setH6965 my feetH7272 upon a rockH5553 7makingH3559 my footstepsH804 firmH3559.3He putH5414 a 8newH2319 songH7892 in my mouthH6310, a songH8416 of praiseH8416 to our GodH430; ManyH7227 will 9seeH7200 and fearH3372 And will trustH982 in the LordH3068.

4How 10blessedH835 is the manH1397 whoH834 has madeH7760 the LordH3068 his trustH4009, And 11has not 12turnedH6437 to the proudH7295, nor to those who 13lapseH7750 into falsehoodH3577.
