King James Version with Apocrypha
"I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest."
— Psalms 40:9, King James Version with Apocrypha
“I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.”
“I have proclaimed glad tidings of righteousness in the great assembly; Lo, I will not refrain my lips, O Jehovah, thou knowest. ”
“I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, Yahweh, you know.”
“I have told the great assembly about your justice. Look! I spare no words! O LORD, you know this is true.”
“They determined against me an unjust word: shall he that sleepeth rise again no more?”
“I have given news of righteousness in the great meeting; O Lord, you have knowledge that I have not kept back my words.”
Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Lord, thou knowest.
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.
Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O Lord: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
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.
