9. It is he who placed our soul into life and did not suffer our feet to slip.
10. For thou, O God, hast proved us; thou hast refined us as silver is refined.
11. Thou didst bring us into the net; thou didst lay affliction upon our loins.
12. Thou hast placed a man over our head; we went through fire and through water, but thou didst bring us out into abundance.
13. I will go into thy house with burnt offerings; I will pay thee my vows,
14. which my lips have uttered and my mouth has spoken when I was in trouble.
15. I will offer unto thee burnt sacrifices of fatlings with the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah.
16. Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what he has done unto 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 me:
19. But verily God has heard me; he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
20. Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer nor his mercy from me.
