8Oh bless our God, ye peoples, And make the voice of his praise to be heard; 9Who holdeth our soul in life, And suffereth not our feet to be moved. 10For thou, O God, hast proved us: Thou hast tried us, as silver is tried. 11Thou broughtest us into the net; Thou layedst a sore burden upon our loins. 12Thou didst cause men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But thou broughtest us out into a wealthy place.
13I will come into thy house with burnt-offerings; I will pay thee my vows, 14Which my lips uttered, And my mouth spake, when I was in distress. 15I will offer unto thee burnt-offerings of fatlings, With the incense of rams; I will offer bullocks with goats. Selah 16Come, and hear, all ye that fear God, And I will declare what he hath done for my soul. 17I cried unto him with my mouth, And he was extolled with my tongue. 18If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear: 19But verily God hath heard; He hath attended to the voice of my prayer. 20Blessed be God, Who hath not turned away my prayer, Nor his lovingkindness from me.
