⁵ Because they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord
    and what his hands have done,^(A)
he will tear them down
    and never build them up again.

⁶ Praise be to the Lord,^(B)
    for he has heard my cry for mercy.^(C)
7 The Lord is my strength^(D) and my shield;
    my heart trusts^(E) in him, and he helps me.
My heart leaps for joy,^(F)
    and with my song I praise him.^(G)
