| 1 | I love Jehovah, because he heareth 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 cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. | 
| 4 | Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: O Jehovah, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. | 
| 5 | Gracious is Jehovah, and righteous; Yea, our God is merciful. | 
| 6 | Jehovah preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me. | 
| 7 | Return unto thy rest, O my soul; For Jehovah hath 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 Jehovah In the land of the living. | 
| 10 | I believe, for I will speak: I was greatly afflicted: | 
| 11 | I said in my haste, All men are liars. | 
| 12 | What shall I render unto Jehovah For all his benefits toward me? | 
| 13 | I will take the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of Jehovah. | 
| 14 | I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people. | 
| 15 | Precious in the sight of Jehovah Is the death of his saints. | 
| 16 | O Jehovah, truly I am thy servant: I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bonds. | 
| 17 | I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of Jehovah. | 
| 18 | I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people, | 
| 19 | In the courts of Jehovah's house, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.           Psalm 117 |
