Psalm 40:11Amplified Bible - Classic EditionWithhold not Your tender mercy from me, O Lord; let Your loving-kindness and Your truth continually preserve me! See the chapter |
In the days of His flesh [Jesus] offered up definite, special petitions [for that which He not only wanted but needed] and supplications with strong crying and tears to Him Who was [always] able to save Him [out] from death, and He was heard because of His reverence toward God [His godly fear, His piety, in that He shrank from the horrors of separation from the bright presence of the Father].
