I have told the glad news of deliverance[a]
    in (A)the great congregation;
behold, I have not (B)restrained my lips,
    (C)as you know, O Lord.
10 I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart;
    I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation;
I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness
    from the great congregation.

11 As for you, O Lord, you will not restrain
    your mercy from me;
your (D)steadfast love and your faithfulness will
    ever preserve me!
12 For evils have (E)encompassed me
    beyond number;
my (F)iniquities have overtaken me,
    and I cannot (G)see;
they are (H)more than the hairs of my head;
    my heart (I)fails me.

13 (J)Be pleased, O Lord, to (K)deliver me!
    O Lord, (L)make haste to help me!
