¹⁸ If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: When I awake, I am still with thee.

⁵ I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for Jehovah sustaineth me.

³ Thou searchest out my path and my lying down, And art acquainted with all my ways.

¹⁰ who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.

² And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.

¹⁹ Thy dead shall live; my dead bodies shall arise. Awake and sing, ye that dwell in the dust; for thy dew is `as' the dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast forth the dead.

⁶ When I remember thee upon my bed, `And' meditate on thee in the night-watches.

⁷ For thou hast been my help, And in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

¹² For innumerable evils have compassed me about; Mine iniquities have overtaken me, so that I am not able to look up; They are more than the hairs of my head; And my heart hath failed me.

⁵ Many, O Jehovah my God, are the wonderful works which thou hast done, And thy thoughts which are to us-ward; They cannot be set in order unto thee; If I would declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered.

¹⁵ As for me, I shall behold thy face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with `beholding' thy form. Psalm 18 For the Chief Musician. `A Psalm' of David the servant of Jehovah, who spake unto Jehovah the words of this song in the day that Jehovah delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul: and he said,

⁸ I have set Jehovah always before me: Because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.

⁹ Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth; My flesh also shall dwell in safety.

¹⁰ For thou wilt not leave my soul to Sheol; Neither wilt thou suffer thy holy one to see corruption.

¹¹ Thou wilt show me the path of life: In thy presence is fulness of joy; In thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 17 A Prayer of David.
