" I have waited expectantly for the Lord, and he was attentive to me."
— Psalms 39:2, Catholic Public Domain Version
“I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.”
“I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; And my sorrow was stirred. ”
“I was mute with silence. I held my peace, even from good. My sorrow was stirred.”
“I was stone silent; I held back the urge to speak. My frustration grew;”
“With expectation I have waited for the Lord, and he was attentive to me.”
“I made no sound, I said no word, even of good; and I was moved with sorrow.”
“I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred.”
Unto the end. A Psalm of David himself.
I have waited expectantly for the Lord, and he was attentive to me.
And he heard my prayers and he led me out of the pit of misery and the quagmire. And he stationed my feet upon a rock, and he directed my steps.
And he sent a new canticle into my mouth, a song to our God. Many will see, and they will fear; and they will hope in the Lord.
Blessed is the man whose hope is in the name of the Lord, and who has no respect for vanities and absurd falsehoods.
