5. Into Your hands I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O Lord, the God of truth and faithfulness. [Luke 23:46; Acts 7:59.]
6. [You and] I abhor those who pay regard to vain idols; but I trust in, rely on, and confidently lean on the Lord.
7. I will be glad and rejoice in Your mercy and steadfast love, because You have seen my affliction, You have taken note of my life's distresses,
8. And You have not given me into the hand of the enemy; You have set my feet in a broad place.
9. Have mercy and be gracious unto me, O Lord, for I am in trouble; with grief my eye is weakened, also my inner self and my body.
10. For my life is spent with sorrow and my years with sighing; my strength has failed because of my iniquity, and even my bones have wasted away.
11. To all my enemies I have become a reproach, but especially to my neighbors, and a dread to my acquaintances, who flee from me on the street.
12. I am forgotten like a dead man, and out of mind; like a broken vessel am I.
