Thenmy enemieswill turnbackin the daywhen I call;ThisI know,that Godis for me.
whodeliveredus from so greata [peril of] death,and will deliver[us], He on whomwe have set our hope.And He will yetdeliverus,
But the Lordstoodwith me and strengthenedme, sothat throughme the proclamationmight be fully accomplished,and that allthe Gentilesmight hear;and I was rescuedout of the lion'smouth.
