Old Testament

New Testament

Psalm 39:6-11 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. You have accomplished your many wonders, O Lord my God, and there is no one similar to you in your thoughts. I have announced and I have spoken: they are multiplied beyond number.

7. Sacrifice and oblation, you did not want. But you have perfected ears for me. Holocaust and sin offering, you did not require.

8. Then I said, "Behold, I draw near." At the head of the book, it has been written of me:

9. that I should do your will. My God, I have willed it. And your law is in the midst of my heart.

10. I have announced your justice in a great Church: behold, I will not restrain my lips. O Lord, you have known it.

11. I have not concealed your justice within my heart. I have spoken your truth and your salvation. I have not concealed your mercy and your truth from a great assembly.
