New Testament

Psalms 40:1-5 Modern English Version (MEV)

1. I waited patiently for the Lord,and He turned to me, and heard my cry.

2. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,out of the miry clay,and set my feet on a rock,and established my steps.

3. He has put a new song in my mouth,even praise to our God;many will see it, and fear,and will trust in the Lord.

4. Blessed is the manwho places trust in the Lord,but does not turn toward the proud,nor those falling away to falsehood.

5. O Lord my God,You have done many wonderful works,and Your thoughts toward uscannot be compared;if I would declare and speak of them,they are more than can be numbered.
