I love the Lord who hears my voice and my supplications.
Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call upon him as long as I live.
The cords of death surrounded me, and the pains of She᾽ol seized upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
Then I called upon the name of the Lord; O Lord, I beseech Thee, deliver my soul.
Gracious is the Lord, and just; and our God is merciful.
The Lord preserves the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me.
Return to thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord has dealt bountifully with thee.
For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living.
I kept faith even when I said, I am greatly afflicted.
I said in my haste, Every man is false.
How can I repay the Lord for all his benefits toward me?
I will raise the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.
I will pay my vows to the Lord now in the presence of all his people.
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his pious ones.
O Lord, truly I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant, the son of Thy handmaid: Thou hast loosed my bonds.
I will offer to Thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.
I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people,
in the courts of the Lord’s house, in the midst of thee, O Yerushalayim. Haleluya!
