1	To the chief Musician# , A Psalm of David. I waited# patiently# for the LORD; and he inclined# unto me, and heard# my cry. [I waited...: Heb. In waiting I waited]
			2	He brought me up# also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set# my feet upon a rock, and established# my goings. [an...: Heb. a pit of noise]
			3	And he hath put# a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see# it , and fear# , and shall trust# in the LORD.
			4	Blessed is that man that maketh# the LORD his trust, and respecteth# not the proud, nor such as turn aside# to lies.
			5	Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful# works which thou hast done# , and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order# unto thee: if I would declare# and speak# of them , they are more# than can be numbered# . [they cannot...: or, none can order them unto thee]
			6	Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire# ; mine ears hast thou opened# : burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required# . [opened: Heb. digged]
			7	Then said# I, Lo, I come# : in the volume of the book it is written# of me,
			8	I delight# to do# thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. [within...: Heb. in the midst of my bowels]
			9	I have preached# righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained# my lips, O LORD, thou knowest# .
			10	I have not hid# thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared# thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed# thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
			11	Withhold# not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve# me.
			12	For innumerable evils have compassed# me about: mine iniquities have taken hold# upon me, so that I am not able# to look up# ; they are more# than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth# me. [falleth: Heb. forsaketh]
			13	Be pleased# , O LORD, to deliver# me: O LORD, make haste# to help me.
			14	Let them be ashamed# and confounded# together that seek# after my soul to destroy# it; let them be driven# backward and put to shame# that wish me evil.
			15	Let them be desolate# for a reward of their shame that say# unto me, Aha, aha.
			16	Let all those that seek# thee rejoice# and be glad# in thee: let such as love# thy salvation say# continually, The LORD be magnified# .
			17	But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh# upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer# ; make no tarrying# , O my God.
