Psalms 40:1

I waited patiently for the LORD; He inclined to me and heard my cry.

² He lifted me up from the pit of despair, out of the miry clay; He set my feet upon a rock, and made my footsteps firm.

³ He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the LORD.
