Psalm 40:2-4
Modern English Version

2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,
    out of the miry clay,
and set my feet on a rock,
    and established my steps.
3 He has put a new song in my mouth,
    even praise to our God;
many will see it, and fear,
    and will trust in the Lord.

4 Blessed is the man
    who places trust in the Lord,
but does not turn toward the proud,
    nor those falling away to falsehood.
