Psalm 40:15

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

Embarrass and shame all those who say, “Just look at you now!”

See the chapter Copy

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

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!”

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

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