Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

15Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.

16Truly, O LORD, I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have broken my bonds.

17I will offer to You a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.

18I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people,

19in the courts of the LORD’s house, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
