I love Jehovah, for he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications; |
2
|
For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during [all] my days. |
3
|
The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow: |
4
|
Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: I beseech thee, Jehovah, deliver my soul. |
5
|
Gracious is Jehovah and righteous; and our God is merciful. |
6
|
Jehovah keepeth 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, my feet from falling. |
9
|
I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living. |
10
|
I believed, therefore have I spoken. As for me, 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 perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people. |
15
|
Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his saints. |
16
|
Yea, Jehovah! for 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 perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people, |
19
|
In the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah! |
