I waited patiently for the Lord;
and he inclined unto me,
and heard my cry. . . .
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.
Blessed is that man
that maketh the Lord his trust,
and respecteth not the proud,
nor such as turn aside to lies.
Many, O Lord my God,
are thy wonderful works
which thou hast done.
Psalms 40:1, 3-5
