9. “What profit is there in my death,if I go down to the pit?Will the dust praise you?Will it tell of your faithfulness?
10. Hear, O Lord, and be merciful to me!O Lord, be my helper!”
11. You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;you have loosed my sackclothand clothed me with gladness,
12. that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent.O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
