What shall I say ? for He hath both spoken unto me, and Himself hath done it: I shall go (walk) softly all my years
in (over) the bitterness of my soul . . . O Lord (my Sovereign King), by these Thy words men live, and in all these is the Life of my spirit (the vitality
of my mind – John 6:63), So wilt Thou recover me, and make me to live.
Behold, for peace I had great bitterness, but Thou hast . . . in love for my soul delivered me from the pit of corruption. Yea, for Thou hast
cast all my sins behind Thy back . . . !” Isaiah 38:15-17
