2 Because he inclined his ear to me,therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
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!”
5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous;our God is merciful.
6 The Lord preserves the simple;when I was brought low, he saved me.
7 Return, O my soul, to your rest;for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
8 For you have delivered my soul from death,my eyes from tears,my feet from stumbling;
