Psalm 40:15-17

Common English Bible

¹⁵ Let those who say to me, “Yes! Oh, yes!”^[a]
    be destroyed by their shame.
¹⁶ But let all who seek you
    celebrate and rejoice in you.
Let those who love your salvation always say,
    “The Lord is great!”
¹⁷ But me? I’m weak and needy.
    Let my Lord think of me.
You are my help and my rescuer.
    My God, don’t wait any longer!
