Psalms 40:1-5 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

1. I called to the Lord, and he heard me. He heard my cries.

2. He lifted me out of the grave. He lifted me from that muddy place. He picked me up, put me on solid ground, and kept my feet from slipping.

3. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see what he did and worship him. They will put their trust in the Lord.

4. Great blessings belong to those who trust in the Lord, for those who do not turn to demons and false gods for help.

5. Lord my God, you have done many amazing things! You have made great plans for us—too many to list. I could talk on and on about them, because there are too many to count.
