Psalm 40:15 in context

The verses around it, from Psalm 40.

11 O LORD, do not withhold Your mercy from me; Your loving devotion and faithfulness will always guard me.

12 For evils without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, so that I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart has failed within me.

13 Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me; hurry, O LORD, to help me.

14 May those who seek my life be ashamed and confounded; may those who wish me harm be repelled and humiliated.

15 May those who say to me, “Aha, aha!” be appalled at their own shame.

16 May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; may those who love Your salvation always say, “The LORD be magnified!”

17 But I am poor and needy; may the Lord think of me. You are my helper and deliverer; O my God, do not delay.
