Psalm 40:1-4

New International Version

¹ I waited patiently^(B) for the Lord;
    he turned to me and heard my cry.^(C)
2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,^(D)
    out of the mud^(E) and mire;^(F)
he set my feet^(G) on a rock^(H)
    and gave me a firm place to stand.
³ He put a new song^(I) in my mouth,
    a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the Lord^(J)
    and put their trust^(K) in him.
