2: He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.

3: And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.

4: Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.

5: Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

6: Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.

7: Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,

8: I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.

9: I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.

10: I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.

11: Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.

12: For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.
