Psalm 40:15-17
The Voice

15 May those who try to catch me off guard,
    those who look at me and say, “Aha, we’ve trapped you,”
    be caught in their own shame instead.

16 But may all who look for You
    discover true joy and happiness in You;
May those who cherish how You save them
    always say, “O Eternal One, You are great and are first in our hearts.”
17 Meanwhile, I am empty and need so much,
    but I know the Lord is thinking of me.
You are my help; only You can save me, my True God.
    Please hurry.

may those who long for your saving help always say,
    “The Lord is great!”(D)

17 But as for me, I am poor and needy;(E)
    may the Lord think(F) of me.
You are my help(G) and my deliverer;(H)
