Who has held our souls in life :
 who has not suffered our feet to slip.
For you have proved us, O God :
 you have tried us as silver is tried.
You brought us into the net :
 you laid sharp torment on our loins.
You let men ride over our heads,
   we went through fire and water :
 but you brought us out into a place of liberty.
I will come into your house with burnt-offerings :
 and I will pay you my vows,
The vows that opened my lips :
 that my mouth uttered when I was in trouble.
I will offer you burnt-offerings of fattened beasts,
   with the sweet smoke of rams :
 I will sacrifice a bull and the flesh of goats.
Come then and hear, all you that fear God :
 and I will tell what he has done for me.
I called to him with my mouth :
 and his praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished wickedness in my heart :
 the Lord would not have heard me.
But God has heard me :
 he has heeded the voice of my prayer.
Praise be to God :
 who has not turned back my prayer,
   or his steadfast love from me.
