11 I said in my alarm, "No one can be trusted!"	11 I said in my excess: Every man is a liar.
12 How can I repay the LORD for all the good done for me?	12 What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things he hath rendered unto me?
13 I will raise the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.	13 I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
14 I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.	14 I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:
15 Too costly in the eyes of the LORD is the death of his faithful.	15 precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
16 LORD, I am your servant, your servant, the child of your maidservant; you have loosed my bonds.	16 O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:
17 I will offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.	17 I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
18 I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,	18 I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:
19 In the courts of the house of the LORD, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!	19 in the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.
