Psalms 30:4-11

⁴For thou art my strength and my refuge; and for thy name’s sake thou wilt lead me, and nourish me.

⁵Thou wilt bring me out of this snare, which they have hidden for me: for thou art my protector.

⁶Into thy hands I commend my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth.

⁷Thou hast hated them that regard vanities, to no purpose. But I have hoped in the Lord:

⁸I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy. For thou best regarded my humility, thou hast saved my soul out of distresses.

⁹And thou hast not shut me up in the hands of the enemy: thou hast set my feet in a spacious place.

¹⁰Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I am afflicted: my eye is troubled with wrath, my soul, and my belly:

¹¹For my life is wasted with grief: and my years in sighs. My strength is weakened through poverty and my bones are disturbed.
