Spoken by David when returning thanks to God, who had delivered him from the lion and the wolf and he had slain both of them

1Praise the Lord, all ye nations; glorify Him, and bless His name: 2Who rescued the soul of His elect from the hands of death, and delivered His holy one from destruction: 3and saved me from the nets of Sheol, and my soul from the pit that cannot be fathomed. 4Because, ere my deliverance could go forth from before Him, I was well nigh rent in two pieces by two wild beasts. 5But He sent His angel, and shut up from me the gaping mouths, and rescued my life from destruction. 6My soul shall glorify Him and exalt Him, because of all His kindnesses which He hath done and will do unto me.
