Psalm 40:6-8
Darby Translation
6 Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire: ears hast thou prepared me. Burnt-offering and sin-offering hast thou not demanded;
7 Then said I, Behold, I come, in the volume of the book it is written of me—
8 To do thy good pleasure, my God, is my delight, and thy law is within my heart.
