Psalm 40:15

Contemporary English Version 1995

Embarrass and shame everyone who says, “Just look at you now!”

See the chapter Copy

They are quick to accuse me. They say, “You did it! We saw you ourselves.”

or say to each other, “Now we've got what we want! We'll gobble him up!”

They will be terrified, suddenly swept away and no longer there.

Disappoint and confuse all who are glad to see me in trouble; disgrace and embarrass my proud enemies who say to me, “You are nothing!”

I pray that all who hate the city of Zion will be made ashamed and forced to turn and run.
