Psalm 40:11-13

International Standard Version

¹¹ Lord, do not withhold your mercy^[a] from me,
    for your gracious love and truthfulness will keep me safe continuously.
¹² Innumerable evils have surrounded me;
    my iniquities have overtaken me so that I cannot see.
They are more in number than the hair on my head,
    and my courage^[b] has forsaken me.

¹³ Be pleased, Lord, to deliver me;
    Lord, hurry up and help me!
