Psalms 40:12-17 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

12. For compassed me have evils innumerable, Overtaken me have mine iniquities, And I have not been able to see; They have been more than the hairs of my head, And my heart hath forsaken me.

13. Be pleased, O Jehovah, to deliver me, O Jehovah, for my help make haste.

14. They are ashamed and confounded together, Who are seeking my soul to destroy it, They are turned backward, And are ashamed, who are desiring my evil.

15. They are desolate because of their shame, Who are saying to me, `Aha, aha.'

16. All seeking Thee rejoice and are glad in Thee, Those loving Thy salvation say continually, `Jehovah is magnified.'

17. And I [am] poor and needy, The Lord doth devise for me. My help and my deliverer [art] Thou, O my God, tarry Thou not.
