Lament and Prayer for Deliverance

Psalms 40:11-17

Don’t withhold your tender mercies from me, LORD. Let your loving kindness and your truth continually preserve me.

For innumerable evils have surrounded me. My iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up. They are more than the hairs of my head. My heart has failed me.

Be pleased, LORD, to deliver me. Hurry to help me, LORD.

Let them be disappointed and confounded together who seek after my soul to destroy it. Let them be turned backward and brought to dishonor who delight in my hurt.

Let them be desolate by reason of their shame that tell me, “Aha! Aha!”

Let all those who seek you rejoice and be glad in you. Let such as love your salvation say continually, “Let the LORD be exalted!”

But I am poor and needy. May the Lord think about me. You are my help and my deliverer. Don’t delay, my God.
