1 I love theLord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.
2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
3 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
4 Then called I upon the name of theLord; OLord, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.
5 Gracious is theLord, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
6 TheLordpreserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.
7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for theLordhath dealt bountifully with thee.
8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before theLordin the land of the living.
10 I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
11 I said in my haste, All men are liars.
12 What shall I render unto theLordfor all his benefits toward me?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of theLord.
14 I will pay my vows unto theLordnow in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight of theLordis the death of his saints.
16 OLord, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of theLord.
18 I will pay my vows unto theLordnow in the presence of all his people,
19 In the courts of theLord’shouse, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye theLord.
