Psalms 40:4 in Context — Psalms 40

2 Ele me tirou de uma cova de tormento, de um lamaceiro de barro; e pôs os meus pés sobre uma rocha; ele firmou meus passos.

3 E pôs em minha boca uma canção nova, um louvor para nosso Deus: muitos [o] verão, e temerão, e confiarão no SENHOR.

4 Bem-aventurado [é] o homem que põe no SENHOR sua confiança; e não dá atenção aos arrogantes e aos que caminham em direção à mentira.

5 Tu, SENHOR meu Deus, multiplicaste para conosco tuas maravilhas e teus planos; eles não podem ser contados em ordem diante de ti; se eu [tentasse] contá-los e falá-los, eles são muito mais do que incontáveis.

6 Tu não te agradaste de sacrifício e oferta; [porém] tu me furaste as orelhas; tu não pediste nem holocausto nem oferta de expiação do pecado.
