Psalm 40:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ Let all those who are trying to kill me be put to shame.
    Let them lose their way.
Let all those who want to destroy me
    be turned back in shame.
¹⁵ Some people make fun of me.
    Let them be shocked when their plans fail.
¹⁶ But let all those who seek you
    be joyful and glad because of what you have done.
Let those who count on you to save them always say,
    “The Lord is great!”
