Psalm 40:4-6

New International Reader's Version

⁴Blessed is the person
    who trusts in the Lord.
They don’t trust in proud people.
    Those proud people worship statues of gods.
⁵Lord my God,
    no one can compare with you.
You have done many wonderful things.
    You have planned to do these things for us.
There are too many of them
    for me to talk about.

⁶You didn’t want sacrifices and offerings.
You didn’t require burnt offerings and sin offerings.
You opened my ears so that I could hear you and obey you.

New International Version

⁴Blessed is the one^(A)
    who trusts in the Lord,^(B)
who does not look to the proud,^(C)
    to those who turn aside to false gods.^[a]^(D)
⁵Many, Lord my God,
    are the wonders^(E) you have done,
    the things you planned for us.
None can compare^(F) with you;
    were I to speak and tell of your deeds,
    they would be too many^(G) to declare.
