Psalm 40:15-17

International Standard Version

¹⁵Let shame be the reward for those who say to me, “Aha! Aha!”

¹⁶Let all who seek you shout for joy and be glad in you.
May those who love your deliverance say,
    “The Lord be magnified!” continuously.
¹⁷But I am poor and needy;
    may the Lord think about me.
You are my help and deliverer.
    My God, do not tarry too long!
