Psalm 40:6-8
International Standard Version
6 You take no delight in sacrifices and offerings—
you have prepared my ears to listen—[a]
you require no burnt offerings or sacrifices for sin.
7 Then I said, “Here I am! I have come!
In the scroll of the book it is written about me.
8 I delight to do your will, my God.
Your Law is part of my inner being.”
