Psalms 40:3-4. Even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD. Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.
You know that this Book of Psalms has many benedictions in it. It begins with a blessing upon "the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful;" but here it has a blessing for the believer: "Blessed is that man that maketh Jehovah his trust." As for the proud and the false, may God preserve us from ever paying any regard to them; for, if not, they will lead us into some such mischief as that into which they have themselves fallen.
