以色列人要說：若不是耶和華幫助我們，若不是耶和華幫助我們，仇敵起來攻擊我們、

耶和華啊，我曾向你呼求，求你不要叫我蒙羞。求你使惡人蒙羞，寂然無聲地躺在陰間。

我的上帝耶和華啊，求你垂顧我，回答我，使我眼睛明亮，免得我在沉睡中死去，

我受到猛烈的攻擊，幾乎要倒下了，但耶和華幫助了我。

死人不能歌頌耶和華，下到墳墓的人不能讚美祂。

看看我左右，無人關心我；我走投無路，無人眷顧我。耶和華啊，我向你呼求，你是我的避難所，在世上你是我的福分。

信靠耶和華的人就像錫安山永不動搖。

弟兄姊妹，希望你們知道我們在亞細亞所遭遇的苦難。那時我們承受極大的壓力，超過了我們的極限，甚至連活命的指望都沒了。我們心裡覺得必死無疑，這使我們不倚靠自己，只倚靠使死人復活的上帝。祂曾救我們脫離死亡的威脅，將來還要救我們。我們深信祂必繼續救我們。
