Psalm 40 | New International Reader’s Version

For the director of music. A psalm of David.

1 I was patient while I waited for the LORD. He turned to me and heard my cry for help. 2 I was sliding down into the pit of death, and he pulled me out. He brought me up out of the mud and dirt. He set my feet on a rock. He gave me a firm place to stand on. 3 He gave me a new song to sing. It is a hymn of praise to our God. Many people will see and have respect for the LORD. They will put their trust in him. 4 Blessed is the person who trusts in the LORD. They don’t trust in proud people. Those proud people worship statues of gods. 5 LORD my God, no one can compare with you. You have done many wonderful things. You have planned to do these things for us. There are too many of them for me to talk about. 6 You didn’t want sacrifices and offerings. You didn’t require burnt offerings and sin offerings. You opened my ears so that I could hear you and obey you. 7 Then I said, ‘Here I am. It is written about me in the book. 8 My God, I have come to do what you want. Your law is in my heart.’ 9 I have told the whole community of those who worship you. I have told them what you have done to save me. LORD, you know that I haven’t kept quiet. 10 I haven’t kept to myself that what you did for me was right. I have spoken about how faithful you were when you saved me. I haven’t hidden your love and your faithfulness from the whole community. 11 LORD, don’t hold back your mercy from me. May your love and faithfulness always keep me safe. 12 There are more troubles all around me than I can count. My sins have caught up with me, and I can’t see any longer. My sins are more than the hairs of my head. I have lost all hope. 13 LORD, please save me. LORD, come quickly to help me. 14 Let all those who are trying to kill me be put to shame. Let them lose their way. Let all those who want to destroy me be turned back in shame. 15 Some people make fun of me. Let them be shocked when their plans fail. 16 But let all those who seek you be joyful and glad because of what you have done. Let those who count on you to save them always say, ‘The LORD is great!’ 17 But I am poor and needy. May the Lord be concerned about me. You are the God who helps me and saves me. You are my God, so don’t wait any longer.

40. Mezmur

Müzik şefi için - Davut'un mezmuru

1 RAB'bi sabırla bekledim; Bana yönelip yakarışımı duydu. 2 Ölüm çukurundan, Balçıktan çıkardı beni, Ayaklarımı kaya üzerinde tuttu, Kaymayayım diye. 3 Ağzıma yeni bir ezgi, Tanrımız'a bir övgü ilahisi koydu. Çokları görüp korkacak Ve RAB'be güvenecekler. 4 Ne mutlu RAB'be güvenen insana, Gururluya, yalana sapana ilgi duymayana. 5 Ya RAB, Tanrım, Harikaların, düşüncelerin ne çoktur bizim için; Sana eş koşulmaz! Duyurmak, anlatmak istesem yaptıklarını, Saymakla bitmez. 6 Kurbandan, sunudan hoşnut olmadın, Ama kulaklarımı açtın. Yakmalık sunu, günah sunusu da istemedin. 7 O zaman şöyle dedim: ‹‹İşte geldim; Kutsal Yazı tomarında benim için yazılmıştır. Ey Tanrım, senin isteğini yapmaktan zevk alırım ben, Yasan yüreğimin derinliğindedir.›› 9 Büyük toplantıda müjdelerim senin zaferini, Sözümü esirgemem, Ya RAB, bildiğin gibi! 10 Zaferini içimde gizlemem, Bağlılığını ve kurtarışını duyururum, Sevgini, sadakatini saklamam büyük topluluktan. 11 Ya RAB, esirgeme sevecenliğini benden! Sevgin, sadakatin hep korusun beni! 12 Sayısız belalar çevremi sardı, Suçlarım bana yetişti, önümü göremiyorum; Başımdaki saçlardan daha çoklar, Çaresiz kaldım. 13 Ne olur, ya RAB, kurtar beni! Yardımıma koş, ya RAB! 14 Utansın canımı almaya çalışanlar, Yüzleri kızarsın! Geri dönsün zararımı isteyenler, Rezil olsunlar! 15 Bana, ‹‹Oh! Oh!›› çekenler Dehşete düşsün utançlarından! 16 Sende neşe ve sevinç bulsun Bütün sana yönelenler! ‹‹RAB yücedir!›› desin hep Senin kurtarışını özleyenler! 17 Bense mazlum ve yoksulum, Düşün beni, ya Rab. Yardımcım ve kurtarıcım sensin, Geç kalma, ey Tanrım!
