1 I love Yahweh, because he listens to my voice,
and my cries for mercy.
2 Because he has turned his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3 The cords of death surrounded me,
the pains of Sheol got a hold of me.
I found trouble and sorrow.
4 Then I called on Yahweh’s name:
"Yahweh, I beg you, deliver my soul."
5 Yahweh is gracious and righteous.
Yes, our God is merciful.
6 Yahweh preserves the simple.
I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 Return to your rest, my soul,
for Yahweh has dealt bountifully with you.
8 For you have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
and my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before Yahweh in the land of the living.
10 I believed, therefore I said,
"I was greatly afflicted."
11 I said in my haste,
"All people are liars."
12 What will I give to Yahweh for all his benefits toward me?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call on Yahweh’s name.
14 I will pay my vows to Yahweh,
yes, in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in Yahweh’s sight is the death of his saints.
16 Yahweh, truly I am your servant.
I am your servant, the son of your servant girl.
You have freed me from my chains.
17 I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving,
and will call on Yahweh’s name.
18 I will pay my vows to Yahweh,
yes, in the presence of all his people,
19 in the courts of Yahweh’s house,
in the middle of you, Jerusalem.
Praise Yah!
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。
