1 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!
