precious in the sight of our Lord is the death of his Saints.

O Lord because I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:
- 8
I will sacrifice to thee the host of praise, and I will invocate the name of our Lord.
- 9
I will render my vows to our Lord in the sight of all his people:

in the courts of the house of our Lord, in the midst of thee, o Jerusalem.
