8. I cried out to You, O Lord;And to the Lord I made supplication:
9. “What profit is there in my blood,When I go down to the pit?Will the dust praise You?Will it declare Your truth?
10. Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me;Lord, be my helper!”
11. You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,
12. To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent.O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
