3. The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish.
|
||
|

|
||
|
4. Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, I pray, deliver my soul!”
|
||

8. For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling;
|
||
|
<a id="9" name="9"></a>
|
||
|
9. I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
|
||
|

|
||
|
10. I believed, even when I spoke: “I am greatly afflicted”;
|
||
|
<a id="11" name="11"></a>
|
||
|
11. I said in my alarm, “All mankind are liars.”
|
||
|
<a id="12" name="12"></a>
|
||
|
12. What shall I render to the LORD for all his benefits to me?
|
||
|
<a id="13" name="13"></a>
|
||
|
13. I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD,
|
||
|

|
||
|
14. I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
|
||

|
||
|
<a id="16" name="16"></a>
|
||
|
16. O LORD, I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant. You have loosed my bonds.
|
||
|
<a id="17" name="17"></a>
|
||
|

|
||
|
18. I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
|
||
|
<a id="19" name="19"></a>
|
||
|
19. in the courts of the house of the LORD, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
