For the redemption of their souls is costly, And it shall cease forever—
For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
Or, ‘Deliver me from the enemy’s hand’? Or, ‘Redeem me from the hand of oppressors’?
Lord, where are Your former lovingkindnesses, Which You swore to David in Your truth?
