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.

1 I have loved, because Jehovah heareth My voice, my supplication,

2 Because He hath inclined His ear to me, And during my days I call.

3 Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol have found me, Distress and sorrow I find.

4 And in the name of Jehovah I call: I pray Thee, O Jehovah, deliver my soul,

5 Gracious [is] Jehovah, and righteous, Yea, our God [is] merciful,

6 A preserver of the simple [is] Jehovah, I was low, and to me He giveth salvation.

7 Turn back, O my soul, to thy rest, For Jehovah hath conferred benefits on thee.

8 For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, my feet from overthrowing.

9 I walk habitually before Jehovah In the lands of the living.

10 I have believed, for I speak, I -- I have been afflicted greatly.

11 I said in my haste, `Every man [is] a liar.`

12 What do I return to Jehovah? All His benefits [are] upon me.

13 The cup of salvation I lift up, And in the name of Jehovah I call.

14 My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people.

15 Precious in the eyes of Jehovah [is] the death for His saints.

16 Cause [it] to come, O Jehovah, for I [am] Thy servant. I [am] Thy servant, son of Thy handmaid, Thou hast opened my bonds.

17 To Thee I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks, And in the name of Jehovah I call.

18 My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people,

19 In the courts of the house of Jehovah, In thy midst, O Jerusalem, praise ye Jah!
