Psalm 40:3-5
New Catholic Bible
3 He raised me up from the desolate pit,
out of the mire of the swamp;
he set my feet upon a rock,
giving me a firm footing.
4 He put a new song[a] in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will look on and be awestruck,
and they will place their trust in the Lord.
5 Blessed[b] is the man
who places his trust in the Lord,
who does not follow the arrogant
or those who go astray after falsehoods.
