1I love Jehovah, because He has heard my voice and my supplications. 2Because He has extended His ear to me, therefore I will call upon Him all my days. 3The bands of death have encompassed me, and the distress of Sheol has fallen upon me; I found trouble and sorrow. 4Then I called upon the name of Jehovah: O Jehovah, I beseech You, deliver my soul! 5Gracious is Jehovah, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful. 6Jehovah protects the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me. 7Return to your rest, O my soul, for Jehovah has dealt bountifully with you. 8For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from stumbling. 9I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living. 10I had been certain, therefore I spoke; I have been greatly afflicted. 11I said in my haste, All men are liars. 12What shall I return unto Jehovah for all His benefits toward me? 13I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of Jehovah. 14I will make good my vows unto Jehovah now in the presence of all His people. 15Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of His saints. 16O Jehovah, truly I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your handmaid; You have loosed my bonds. 17I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of Jehovah. 18I will make good my vows unto Jehovah now in the presence of all His people, 19in the courts of the house of Jehovah, in the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise YAH!
