Psalm 40:15

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.

Pour upon them Thine indignation, And the fierceness of Thine anger doth seize them.

Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying, 'Aha, aha.'

How have they become a desolation as in a moment, They have been ended -- consumed from terrors.

Appoint Thou over him the wicked, And an adversary standeth at his right hand.

'Because days shall come upon thee, and thine enemies shall cast around thee a rampart, and compass thee round, and press thee on every side,

'And woe to those with child, and to those giving suck, in those days; for there shall be great distress on the land, and wrath on this people;

And they enlarge against me their mouth, They said, 'Aha, aha, our eye hath seen.'

Let them turn back because of their shame, Who are saying, 'Aha, aha.'

They are ashamed and troubled for ever, Yea, they are confounded and lost.
