6. Sacrifice and offering thou hast no delight in; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
7. Then said I, Lo, I am come; in the roll of the book it is written of me:
8. I delight to do thy will, O my God; yea, thy law is within my heart.
9. I have published righteousness in the great congregation; lo, I will not refrain my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.
10. I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation.
11. Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.
12. For innumerable evils have compassed me about, mine iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head, and my heart hath failed me.
13. Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: make haste to help me, O LORD.
