Psalms 40

KING JAMES BIBLE	Biblia Maria
1 I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.	1 Ao mestre de canto. Salmo de Davi.
2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.	2 Feliz quem se lembra do necessitado e do pobre, porque no dia da desgraça o Senhor o salvará.
3 And 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.	3 O Senhor há de guardá-lo e o conservará vivo, há de torná-lo feliz na terra e não o abandonará à mercê de seus inimigos.
4 Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.	4 O Senhor o assistirá no leito de dores, e na sua doença o reconfortará.
5 Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.	5 Quanto a mim, eu vos digo: “Piedade para mim, Senhor; sarai-me, porque pequei contra vós”.
6 Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.	6 Meus inimigos falam de mim maldizendo: “Quando há de morrer e se extinguir o seu nome?”.
7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,	7 Se alguém me vem visitar, fala hipocritamente. Seu coração recolhe calúnias e, saindo fora, se apressa em divulgá-las.
8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.	8 Todos os que me odeiam murmuram contra mim, e só procuram fazer-me mal.
9 I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest.	9 “Um mal mortal – dizem eles – o atingiu; ei-lo deitado, para não mais se levantar.”
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.	10 Até o próprio amigo em que eu confiava, que partilhava do meu pão, levantou contra mim o calcanhar.
11 Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me.	11 Ao menos vós, Senhor, tende piedade de mim; erguei-me, para eu lhes dar a paga que merecem.
12 For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.	12 Nisso verei que me sois favorável, se meu inimigo não triunfar de mim.
13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me.	13 Vós, porém, me conservareis incólume, e na vossa presença me poreis para sempre.
14 Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil.	14 Bendito seja o Senhor, Deus de Israel, de eternidade em eternidade! Assim seja! Assim seja!
15 Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha.
16 Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.
17 But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
