¹⁸ If I made up their number, it would be more than the grains of sand; when I am awake, I am still with you.

⁵ I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support.

³ You keep watch over my steps and my sleep, and have knowledge of all my ways.

¹⁰ Who was put to death for us, so that, awake or sleeping, we may have a part in his life.

² And a number of those who are sleeping in the dust of the earth will come out of their sleep, some to eternal life and some to eternal shame.

¹⁹ Your dead will come back; their dead bodies will come to life again. Those in the dust, awaking from their sleep, will send out a song; for your dew is a dew of light, and the earth will give birth to the shades.

⁶ When the memory of you comes to me on my bed, and when I give thought to you in the night-time.

⁷ Because you have been my help, I will have joy in the shade of your wings.

¹² For unnumbered evils are round about me; my sins have overtaken me, so that I am bent down with their weight; they are more than the hairs of my head, my strength is gone because of them.

⁵ O Lord my God, great are the wonders which you have done in your thought for us; it is not possible to put them out in order before you; when I would give an account of them, their number is greater than I may say.

¹⁵ As for me, I will see your face in righteousness: when I am awake it will be joy enough for me to see your form.

⁸ I have put the Lord before me at all times; because he is at my right hand, I will not be moved.

⁹ Because of this my heart is glad, and my glory is full of joy: while my flesh takes its rest in hope.

¹⁰ For you will not let my soul be prisoned in the underworld; you will not let your loved one see the place of death.

¹¹ You will make clear to me the way of life; where you are joy is complete; in your right hand there are pleasures for ever and ever.
