Evangelical Heritage Version
Messiah’s Prayer in Distress
11 Lord, you do not hold back your compassion from me.
Let your mercy and your truth always protect me,
12 although troubles without number surround me.
Punishments for my guilt have smothered me, so I cannot see.
They are more than the hairs of my head, so my courage deserts me.
13 Be pleased, O Lord, to save me.
Lord, hurry to help me.

11 Do not withhold your mercy(A) from me, Lord;
may your love(B) and faithfulness(C) always protect(D) me.
12 For troubles(E) without number surround me;
my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see.(F)
They are more than the hairs of my head,(G)
and my heart fails(H) within me.
13 Be pleased to save me, Lord;
come quickly, Lord, to help me.(I)

Psalm 40:11-13
King James Version
11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
13 Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me: O Lord, make haste to help me.
