Psalm 40:2

Thanksgiving And A Cry For Help

¹ {To the chief Musician. Of David. A Psalm.} I waited patiently for Jehovah; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. ² And he brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock; he hath established my goings: ³ And he hath put a new song in my mouth, praise unto our God. Many shall see it, and fear, and shall confide in Jehovah.
