8. Oh bless our God, ye peoples, And make the voice of his praise to be heard;
9. Who holdeth our soul in life, And suffereth not our feet to be moved.
10. For thou, O God, hast proved us: Thou hast tried us, as silver is tried.
11. Thou broughtest us into the net; Thou layedst a sore burden upon our loins.
12. Thou didst cause men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13. I will come into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
14. Which my lips uttered, And my mouth spake, when I was in distress.
15. I will offer unto thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, With the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats.
16. Come, and hear, all ye that fear God, And I will declare what he hath done for my soul.
17. I cried unto him with my mouth, And he was extolled with my tongue.
18. If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear:
19. But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer.
20. Blessed be God, Who hath not turned away my prayer, Nor his lovingkindness from me.
