9. And so I walk in the presence of the Lordin the world of the living.
10. I kept on believing, even when I said,“I am completely crushed,”
11. even when I was afraid and said,“No one can be trusted.”
12. What can I offer the Lordfor all his goodness to me?
13. I will bring a wine offering to the Lord,to thank him for saving me.
14. In the assembly of all his peopleI will give him what I have promised.
15. How painful it is to the Lordwhen one of his people dies!
16. I am your servant, Lord;I serve you, just as my mother did.You have saved me from death.
17. I will give you a sacrifice of thanksgivingand offer my prayer to you.
18-19. In the assembly of all your people,in the sanctuary of your Temple in Jerusalem,I will give you what I have promised.Praise the Lord!
