Then, "I will tell others how you rescued me."
And, "All of you who are listening need to praise the Lord."
Followed by a reminder of the Lord's intentions, "Everybody on earth, including the poor, shall turn to the Lord."
This psalm is an interesting choice for a response to the passage from Isaiah. It's a kind of on-the-other-hand for the prophet's chastising people who forgot the Lord.
But, the psalm does track more closely the gospel reading for this week. The man who was healed was thankful and wanted everybody to know how much and to whom he was thankful.
