8Voluntarie sacrificabo tibi, et confitebor nomini tuo, Domine, quoniam bonum est.
8I will freely sacrifice to thee, and will give praise, O God, to thy name: because it is good:
9Quoniam ex omni tribulatione eripuisti me, et super inimicos meos despexit oculus meus.]
9For thou hast delivered me out of all trouble: and my eye hath looked down upon my enemies.
