Psalm 40:5–92 matched frames1 pivot

Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

A 5 MANY, O Yahweh 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.
- B 6 Sacrifice and offering THOU DIDST NOT DESIRE; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required.
  - C 7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me,
- B' 8 I DELIGHT to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.
A' 9 I have preached righteousness in the GREAT congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O Yahweh, thou knowest.
