3 Because thy mercy is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4 Thus will I bless thee in my life; in thy name shall I lift up my hands.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips
6 When I remember thee upon my bed and meditate on thee in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 My soul has followed hard after thee; thy right hand has upheld me.
9 But those that sought my soul, to destroy it, descended into the lower parts of the earth.
