9. He has kept us aliveand has not allowed us to fall.
10. You have tested us, O God.You have refined us in the same way silver is refined.
11. You have trapped us in a net.You have laid burdens on our backs.
12. You let people ride over our heads.We went through fire and water,but then you brought us out and refreshed us.
13. I will come into your temple with burnt offerings.I will keep my vows to you,
14. the vows made by my lips and spoken by my ⌊own⌋ mouthwhen I was in trouble.
15. I will offer you a sacrifice of fattened livestock for burnt offeringswith the smoke from rams.I will offer cattle and goats. Selah
16. Come and listen, all who fear God,and I will tell you what he has done for me.
17. With my mouth I cried out to him.High praise was on my tongue.
18. If I had thought about doing anything sinful,the Lord would not have listened ⌊to me⌋.
