Psalm 40:14-16
International Children’s Bible
14 People are trying to kill me.
Shame them and disgrace them.
People want to hurt me.
Let them run away in disgrace.
15 People are making fun of me.
Let them be shamed into silence.
16 But let those who follow you
be happy and glad.
They love you for saving them.
May they always say, “Praise the Lord!”
Psalm 40:14-16

be appalled at their own shame.

rejoice and be glad(F) in you;
may those who long for your saving help always say,
“The Lord is great!”(G)
