Psalm 40:10-12

Living Bible

¹⁰ I have not kept this good news hidden in my heart, but have proclaimed your loving-kindness and truth to all the congregation.

¹¹ O Lord, don’t hold back your tender mercies from me! My only hope is in your love and faithfulness. ¹² Otherwise I perish, for problems far too big for me to solve are piled higher than my head. Meanwhile my sins, too many to count, have all caught up with me, and I am ashamed to look up. My heart quails within me.
