1 I waited patiently for the Lord's help; then he listened to me and heard my cry.
2 He pulled me out of a dangerous pit, out of the deadly quicksand, He set me safely on a rock and made me secure.
3 He taught me to sing a new song, a song of praise to our God. Many who see this will take warning and will put their trust in the Lord.
4 Happy are those who trust the Lord, who do not turns to idols or join those who worship false gods.
5 You have done many things for us, O Lord our God; there is no one like you! You have made many wonderful plans for us. I could never speak of them all---their number is so great!
6 You do not want sarifices and offerings; you do not ask for animals burned whole on the altar or for sacrifices to take away sins. Instead, you have given me ears to hear you,
7 and so I answered, "Here I am; your instructions for me are in the book of the law."
8 How I love to do your will, my God! I keep your teaching in my heart."
