But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly: Yahweh will hear when I call to him.

set apart among the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more. They are cut off from your hand.

"Let's break their bonds apart, and cast their cords from us."

lest they tear apart my soul like a lion, ripping it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

My soul, you have said to Yahweh, "You are my Lord. Apart from you I have no good thing."

Yahweh is righteous. He has cut apart the cords of the wicked.

To him who divided the Red Sea apart; for his loving kindness endures forever;

"Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.
