The Lord is my hope: In Him I shall not be confounded.
2For according to His praise He made me, And according to His goodness even so He gave unto me.
3And according to His mercies He exalted me; And according to His excellent beauty He set me on high.
4And He brought me up out of the depths of Sheol; And from the mouth of death He drew me.
5And I laid my enemies low; And He justified me by His grace.
6For I believed in the Lord's Messiah; And He appeared to me that He is the Lord.
7And He showed me His sign, And led me by His light;
8And He gave me the rod of His power; That I might subdue the imaginations of the people: And to bring down the power of the men of might.
9To make war by His Word; And to take victory by His power.
10And the Lord overthrew my enemy by His Word; And he became like the stubble which the wind carries away.
11And I gave praise to the Most High; Because He exalted His servant and the Son of His handmaid. Hallelujah.
