Psalm 40:6-11

English Standard Version

^6 (A)In sacrifice and offering you have not delighted,
    but you have given me an open ^(B)ear.^[a]
Burnt offering and sin offering
    you have not required.
⁷ Then I said, “Behold, I have come;
    in the scroll of the book it is written ^(C)of me:
^8 (D)I delight to do your will, O my God;
    your law is ^(E)within my heart.”

⁹ I have told the glad news of deliverance^[b]
    in ^(F)the great congregation;
behold, I have not ^(G)restrained my lips,
    ^(H)as you know, O Lord.
¹⁰ I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;
    I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;
I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness
    from the great congregation.

¹¹ As for you, O Lord, you will not restrain
    your mercy from me;
your ^(I)steadfast love and your faithfulness will
    ever preserve me!
