Psalms 40:1-4 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

1. For the leader. A psalm of David.

2. Surely, I wait for the Lord;who bends down to me and hears my cry,

3. Draws me up from the pit of destruction,out of the muddy clay,Sets my feet upon rock,steadies my steps,

4. And puts a new song in my mouth,a hymn to our God.Many shall look on in fearand they shall trust in the Lord.
