Sirach 51:10

⁸Then thought I upon thy mercy, O Lord, and upon thy acts of old, how thou deliverest such as wait for thee, and savest them out of the hands of the enemies.

⁹Then lifted I up my supplications from the earth, and prayed for deliverance from death.

— Sirach 51:10 —

¹¹I will praise thy name continually, and will sing praises with thanksgiving; and so my prayer was heard:

¹²For thou savedst me from destruction, and deliveredst me from the evil time: therefore will I give thanks, and praise thee, and bless they name, O Lord.
