Salmos 40:6-8
Nueva Versión Internacional
6 A ti no te complacen sacrificios ni ofrendas,
pero has abierto mis oídos para oírte;
tú no has pedido holocaustos ni sacrificios por el pecado.
7 Por eso dije: «Aquí me tienes
—como el libro dice de mí—.
8 Me agrada, Dios mío, hacer tu voluntad;
tu Ley la llevo dentro de mí».
