5 The Lord is Gracious and righteous.Yes, our God is merciful.
6 The Lord preserves the simple.I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 Return to your rest, my soul,for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
8 For you have delivered my soul from death,my eyes from tears,and my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.
10 I believed, therefore I said,“I was greatly afflicted.”
11 I said in my haste,“All people are liars.”
