“For great is thy mercy toward me: and thou hast delivered my soul from the lowest hell.”
God's commitment is affirmed: "For great is your steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol." The hesed (steadfast love, covenant loyalty) of God becomes ground for gratitude. The liberation from the depths of Sheol (death/the underworld) represents deliverance from ultimate peril.
