⁷ I will be glad and rejoice in thy lovingkindness;
For thou hast seen my affliction:
Thou hast known ^[a]my soul in adversities;
⁸ And thou hast not shut me up into the hand of the enemy;
Thou hast set my feet in a large place.
⁹ Have mercy upon me, O Jehovah, for I am in distress:
Mine eye wasteth away with grief, yea, my soul and my body.
