1 I have given my love to the Lord, because he has given ear to the voice of my cry and my prayer.
2 He has let my request come before him, and I will make my prayer to him all my days.
3 The nets of death were round me, and the pains of the underworld had me in their grip; I was full of trouble and sorrow.
4 Then I made my prayer to the Lord, saying, O Lord, take my soul out of trouble.
5 The Lord is full of grace and righteousness; truly, he is a God of mercy.
6 The Lord keeps the simple; I was made low, and he was my saviour.
7 Come back to your rest, O my soul; for the Lord has given you your reward.
8 You have taken my soul from the power of death, keeping my eyes from weeping, and my feet from falling.
9 I will go before the Lord in the land of the living.
10 I still had faith, though I said, I am in great trouble;
11 Though I said in my fear, All men are false.
12 What may I give to the Lord for all the good things which he has done for me?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and give praise to the name of the Lord.
14 I will make the offering of my oath to the Lord, even before all his people.
15 Dear in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saints.
16 O Lord, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of her who is your servant; by you have my cords been broken.
17 I will give an offering of praise to you, and make my prayer in the name of the Lord.
18 I will make the offerings of my oath, even before all his people;
19 In the Lord's house, even in Jerusalem. Praise be to the Lord.
1 我爱耶和华, 因为他听了我的声音、我的恳求。
2 因为他留心听我的恳求, 我一生一世要求告他。
3 死亡的绳索缠绕着我, 阴间的痛苦抓住我; 我遭遇患难和愁苦。
4 那时, 我呼求耶和华的名, 说: "耶和华啊! 求你拯救我。"
5 耶和华有恩典, 有公义, 我们的 神满有怜悯。
6 耶和华保护愚蒙人, 我落到卑微的地步, 他拯救了我。
7 我的心哪! 你要回复安宁, 因为耶和华用厚恩待你。
8 主啊! 你救了我的性命脱离死亡, 你使我的眼睛不致流泪, 使我的双脚不致跌倒。
9 我要在活人之地, 行在耶和华面前。
10 我虽然说: "我受了极大的痛苦", 但我仍然相信。
11 我在惊惶之中曾说: "人都是说谎的。"
12 我拿什么报答耶和华向我所施的一切厚恩呢?
13 我要举起救恩的杯, 称扬耶和华的名。
14 我要在耶和华的众民面前, 向他还我所许的愿。
15 在耶和华的眼中看来, 圣民的死极为宝贵。
16 耶和华啊! 我真是你的仆人; 我是你仆人, 你婢女的儿子; 我的锁链你给我解开了。
17 我要把感恩祭献给你, 我要称扬耶和华的名。
18 我要在耶和华的众民面前, 向他还我所许的愿。
19 耶路撒冷啊! 就是在你的中间, 在耶和华殿的院子里, 我要还我所许的愿。你们要赞美耶和华。
