¹² What may I give to the Lord for all the good things which he has done for me?

² Give praise to the Lord, O my soul; let not all his blessings go from your memory.

²⁰ For a payment has been made for you: let God be honoured in your body.

¹ For this reason I make request to you, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you will give your bodies as a living offering, holy, pleasing to God, which is the worship it is right for you to give him.

¹⁴ For it is the love of Christ which is moving us; because we are of the opinion that if one was put to death for all, then all have undergone death;

¹⁵ And that he underwent death for all, so that the living might no longer be living to themselves, but to him who underwent death for them and came back from the dead.

²⁵ But Hezekiah did not do as had been done to him; for his heart was lifted up in pride; and so wrath came on him and on Judah and Jerusalem.

¹² Give me back the joy of your salvation; let a free spirit be my support.

¹³ Then will I make your ways clear to wrongdoers; and sinners will be turned to you.

¹⁴ Be my saviour from violent death, O God, the God of my salvation; and my tongue will give praise to your righteousness.

⁵ Then I said, The curse is on me, and my fate is destruction; for I am a man of unclean lips, living among a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of armies.

⁶ Then a winged one came to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from off the altar with the fire-spoon.

⁷ And after touching my mouth with it, he said, See, your lips have been touched with this; and your evil is taken away, and you are made clean from sin.

⁸ And the voice of the Lord came to my ears, saying, Whom am I to send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I, send me.
