6 Now in my prosperity I said,
“I shall never be¹ moved.” ‡

7 Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong;
^aYou hid Your face, and I was troubled. ‡

9 “What profit is there in my blood,
When I go down to the pit?
^aWill the dust praise You?
Will it declare Your truth? ‡

10 Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me;
Lord, be my helper!”
