26     Because of this, I am very happy,
    and I will praise you, God.
    I am human and one day I will die,
    but I know that you will help me while I live.
27 When I die, you will not leave me in Hades, the place for dead people.
    You will not let anything destroy the body of your Holy One.
28 You have shown me the paths that lead to life with you.
    I will be completely happy because you will be with me for ever.” ’[a]
