Psalm 40:1

New International Version

¹I waited patiently^(B) for the Lord;
he turned to me and heard my cry.^(C)

²And He doth cause me to come up From a pit of desolation -- from mire of mud, And He raiseth up on a rock my feet, He is establishing my steps.

²He lifted me out of the slimy pit,^(A)
out of the mud^(B) and mire;^(C)
he set my feet^(D) on a rock^(E)
and gave me a firm place to stand.
