³ The cords of death^(E) entangled me,
    the anguish of the grave came over me;
    I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
⁴ Then I called on the name^(F) of the Lord:
    “Lord, save me!^(G)”

¹² What shall I return to the Lord
    for all his goodness^(A) to me?

¹³ I will lift up the cup of salvation
    and call on the name^(B) of the Lord.
¹⁴ I will fulfill my vows^(C) to the Lord
    in the presence of all his people.

¹⁵ Precious in the sight^(D) of the Lord
    is the death of his faithful servants.^(E)
16 Truly I am your servant, Lord;^(F)
    I serve you just as my mother did;^(G)
    you have freed me from my chains.^(H)

¹⁷ I will sacrifice a thank offering^(I) to you
    and call on the name of the Lord.
¹⁸ I will fulfill my vows^(J) to the Lord
    in the presence of all his people,
¹⁹ in the courts^(K) of the house of the Lord—
    in your midst, Jerusalem.^(L)

Praise the Lord.^[a]
