29 But I am (A)afflicted and in pain;
[a]May Your salvation, God, (B)set me safely on high.
30 I will (C)praise the name of God with song,
And (D)exalt Him with (E)thanksgiving.
31 And it will (F)please the Lord better than an ox
Or bull with horns and hoofs.
32 The (G)humble [b]have seen it and are glad;
You who seek God, (H)let your heart [c]revive.
33 For (I)the Lord hears the needy,
And (J)does not despise those of His who are prisoners.

34 (K)Heaven and earth shall praise Him,
The seas and (L)everything that moves in them.
35 For God will (M)save Zion and (N)build the cities of Judah,
So that they may live there and (O)possess it.
36 The [d](P)descendants of His servants will inherit it,
And those who love His name (Q)will live in it.
