In context

Before · Psalm 40:4–5

4Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust, and doesn’t respect the proud, nor such as turn away to lies. 5Many, LORD, my God, are the wonderful works which you have done, and your thoughts which are toward us. They can’t be declared back to you. If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be counted.

6Sacrifice and offering you didn’t desire. You have opened my ears. You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.

After · Psalm 40:7–8

7Then I said, “Behold, I have come. It is written about me in the book in the scroll. 8I delight to do your will, my God. Yes, your law is within my heart.”
