New Century Version

Psalms 40:9-12 New Century Version (NCV)

9. I will tell about your goodness in the great meeting of your people.Lord, you know my lips are not silent.

10. I do not hide your goodness in my heart;I speak about your loyalty and salvation.I do not hide your love and truthfrom the people in the great meeting.

11. Lord, do not hold back your mercy from me;let your love and truth always protect me.

12. Troubles have surrounded me;there are too many to count.My sins have caught meso that I cannot see a way to escape.I have more sins than hairs on my head,and I have lost my courage.
