Psalms 40:13-17
13
Be pleased, O Lord, to save me;
O Lord, come quickly to help me.
14
May all who seek to take my life
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.
15
May those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”
be appalled at their own shame.
16
But may all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation always say,
“The Lord be exalted!”
17
Yet I am poor and needy;
may the Lord think of me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
O my God, do not delay.
