Psalms 40:13

---

← Psalms 40:12	Psalms 40:13 (KJV)	Psalms 40:14 →
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.	Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.	Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.
