8. I will cry unto thee, O GOD; and unto the Lord will I make supplication.
9. What profit is there in my blood when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? Shall it declare thy truth?
10. Hear, O Lord and have mercy upon me: Lord, be thou my helper.
11. Thou hast turned my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness;
12. to the end that I may sing glory unto thee and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
