4
Blessed is that man who makes the Lord his trust, And does not respect the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5
Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works Which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered.
6
Sacrifice and offering You did not desire; My ears You have opened. Burnt offering and sin offering You did not require.
7
Then I said, "Behold, I come; In the scroll of the book it is written of me.
8
I delight to do Your will, O my God, And Your law is within my heart."
9
I have proclaimed the good news of righteousness In the great assembly; Indeed, I do not restrain my lips, O Lord, You Yourself know.
10
I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart; I have declared Your faithfulness and Your salvation; I have not concealed Your lovingkindness and Your truth From the great assembly.
11
Do not withhold Your tender mercies from me, O Lord; Let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve me.
12
For innumerable evils have surrounded me; My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; They are more than the hairs of my head; Therefore my heart fails me.
13
Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me; O Lord, make haste to help me!
14
Let them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion Who seek to destroy my life; Let them be driven backward and brought to dishonor Who wish me evil.
