Psalm 40:6-8

New International Version (NIV)

Sacrifice and offering you did not desire—
    but my ears you have opened[a]
    burnt offerings and sin offerings[b] you did not require.
Then I said, “Here I am, I have come—
    it is written about me in the scroll.[c]
I desire to do your will, my God;
    your law is within my heart.”
