Be merciful to me, O LORD! See the sufferings my enemies cause me! Rescue me from death, O LORD,

So I will triumph over my enemies around me. With shouts of joy I will offer sacrifices in his Temple; I will sing, I will praise the LORD.

I will bring burnt offerings to your house; I will offer you what I promised.

I will offer sheep to be burned on the altar; I will sacrifice bulls and goats, and the smoke will go up to the sky.

He healed them with his command and saved them from the grave.

They must thank him with sacrifices, and with songs of joy must tell all that he has done.

What can I offer the LORD for all his goodness to me?

In the assembly of all his people I will give him what I have promised.

I am your servant, LORD; I serve you just as my mother did. You have saved me from death.

In the assembly of all your people, in the sanctuary of your Temple in Jerusalem, I will give you what I have promised. Praise the LORD!

He has punished me severely, but he has not let me die.

LORD, you have healed me. We will play harps and sing your praise, Sing praise in your Temple as long as we live.

"If after all of this punishment you still do not listen to me, but continue to defy me,

then I will turn on you and punish you seven times harder than before.

"If after all of this you still continue to defy me and refuse to obey me,

When his troubles were at their worst, that man Ahaz sinned against the LORD more than ever.

Then it goes out and brings along seven other spirits even worse than itself, and they come and live there. So when it is all over, that person is in worse shape than at the beginning. This is what will happen to the evil people of this day."

I have given her time to repent of her sins, but she does not want to turn from her immorality.

I will also kill her followers, and then all the churches will know that I am the one who knows everyone's thoughts and wishes. I will repay each of you according to what you have done.
