Psalms 40:14 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 40:14

12 For innumerable evils have surrounded me;
^aMy iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up;
They are more than the hairs of my head;
Therefore my heart fails me.

13 ^aBe pleased, O Lord, to deliver me;
O Lord, make haste to help me!

14 ^aLet them be ashamed and brought to mutual confusion
Who seek to destroy my¹ life;
Let them be driven backward and brought to dishonor
Who wish me evil.

15 Let them be ^aconfounded because of their shame,
Who say to me, “Aha, aha!”

16 ^aLet all those who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
Let such as love Your salvation ^bsay continually,
“The Lord be magnified!”

17 ^aBut I am poor and needy;
^bYet the Lord thinks upon me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
Do not delay, O my God.
