7. Be confident, my heart,because the Lord has been good to me.
8. The Lord saved me from death;he stopped my tearsand kept me from defeat.
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?
