If I go down into the deep hole of death,
    that will not help you!
My dead body cannot praise you there!
    It cannot tell people to trust you!
10 Lord, please listen to me!
    Please be kind to me!
Lord, please be my helper!

    so that I dance instead!
I do not need to wear sackcloth,
    because I am no longer sad.
Instead, you have made me very happy.[a]
