“I cried out.
‘Lord!
You are my Father!
Do not forsake me
In the days of trouble!
There is no help
Against the proud.
I will praise your name continually!
I will sing hymns of thanksgiving!’
My prayer was heard.
You saved me from destruction.
You rescued me in the time of trouble.
For this reason,
I thank you.
I praise you.
I will bless
The name of the Lord.”

However, he was going to praise the name of God continually by singing hymns of thanksgiving. Fortunately, his prayers were heard as he was saved from destruction. He was rescued in his time of trouble. Therefore, he thanked and praised the Lord. He blessed the name of the Lord.
