And He said, Let Me go, for the dawn has risen. But he said, I will not let You go unless You bless me!

i1 [To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.] i0 par O Jehovah, You have searched me and known me.

You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thoughts afar off.

I know your works, and love, and service, and faith, and patience and your works; and the last being more than the first.
