⁹ And I sent up my prayer from the earth,
   and begged for rescue from death.
¹⁰ I cried out, ‘Lord, you are my Father;^*
   do not forsake me in the days of trouble,
   when there is no help against the proud.
¹¹ I will praise your name continually,
   and will sing hymns of thanksgiving.’
My prayer was heard,
¹²   for you saved me from destruction
   and rescued me in time of trouble.
For this reason I thank you and praise you,
   and I bless the name of the Lord.
