Psalm 40:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 And he hath put in my mouth [a]a new song of praise unto our God: many shall see it and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.
4 Blessed is the man that maketh the Lord his trust, and regardeth [b]not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
5 [c]O Lord my God, thou hast made thy wonderful works so many, that none can count in order to thee thy thoughts toward us: I would declare and speak of them, but they are more than I am able to express.
