11GiveH3034 thanksH3034 to the LordH3068, for 2He is goodH2896; For His lovingkindnessH2617 is everlastingH5769.2OhH4994 let 3IsraelH3478 sayH559, “His lovingkindnessH2617 is everlastingH5769.”3OhH4994 let the 4houseH1004 of AaronH175 sayH559, “His lovingkindnessH2617 is everlastingH5769.”4OhH4994 let those 5who 6fearH3372 the LordH3068 sayH559, “His lovingkindnessH2617 is everlastingH5769.”

5From my 7distressH4712 I calledH7121 upon 8the LordH3050; 9The LordH3050 answeredH6030 me and 10set me in a largeH4800 placeH4800.6The LordH3068 is 11for me; I will 12not fearH3372; 13WhatH4100 can manH120 doH6213 to me?7The LordH3068 is for me 14among those who helpH5826 me; Therefore I will 15lookH7200 with satisfaction on those who hateH8130 me.8It is 16betterH2896 to takeH2620 refugeH2620 in the LordH3068 ThanH4480 to trustH982 in manH120.
