17 They (A)surround me like a flood (B)all day long;
    they (C)close in on me together.
18 You have caused (D)my beloved and my friend to shun me;
    my companions have become darkness.[a]

I Will Sing of the Steadfast Love of the Lord

A Maskil[b] of (E)Ethan the Ezrahite.

89 (F)I will sing of (G)the steadfast love of the Lord forever;
    with my mouth I will make known your (H)faithfulness to all generations.
