Psalm 40:15-17

Revised Standard Version

¹⁵Let them be appalled because of their shame
who say to me, “Aha, Aha!”

¹⁶But may all who seek thee
    rejoice and be glad in thee;
may those who love thy salvation
    say continually, “Great is the Lord!”
¹⁷As for me, I am poor and needy;
    but the Lord takes thought for me.
Thou art my help and my deliverer;
    do not tarry, O my God!
