2. For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during all my days.
3. The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow:
4. Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: I beseech thee, Jehovah, deliver my soul.
5. Gracious is Jehovah and righteous; and our God is merciful.
6. Jehovah keepeth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me.
7. Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee.
8. For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
9. I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.
