6. Thou hast multiplied thy wonderful works, O Lord my God: and in thy thoughts there is no one like to thee. I have declared and I have spoken they are multiplied above number.
7. Sacrifice and oblation thou didst not desire; but thou hast pierced ears for me. Burnt offering and sin offering thou didst not require:
8. then said I, Behold I come. In the head of the book it is written of me
9. that I should do thy will: O my God, I have desired it, and thy law in the midst of my heart.
10. I have declared thy justice in a great church, lo, I will not restrain my lips: O Lord, thou knowest it.
11. I have not hid thy justice within my heart: I have declared thy truth and thy salvation. I have not concealed thy mercy and thy truth from a great council.
12. Withhold not thou, O Lord, thy tender mercies from me: thy mercy and thy truth have always upheld me.
13. For evils without number have surrounded me; my iniquities have overtaken me, and I was not able to see. They are multiplied above the hairs of my head: and my heart hath forsaken me.
14. Be pleased, O Lord, to deliver me, look down, O Lord, to help me.
15. Let them be confounded and ashamed together, that seek after my soul to take it away. Let them be turned backward and be ashamed that desire evils to me.
16. Let them immediately bear their confusion, that say to me: 't is well, 't is well.
