^[1]  I love Jehovah, because he heareth My voice and my supplications.

^[1]  ---

^[2]  Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, Therefore will I callupon himas long as I live.

^[2]  ---

^[3]  The cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.

^[3]  ---

^[4]  Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: O Jehovah, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

^[4]  ---

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

^[5]  ---

^[6]  Jehovah preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me.

^[6]  ---

^[7]  Return unto thy rest, O my soul; For Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee.

^[7]  ---

^[8]  For thou hast delivered my soul from death, Mine eyes from tears, Andmy feet from falling.

^[8]  ---

^[9]  I will walk before Jehovah In the land of the living.

^[9]  ---

^[10]  I believe, for I will speak: I was greatly afflicted:

^[10]  ---

^[11]  I said in my haste, All men are liars.

^[11]  ---

^[12]  What shall I render unto Jehovah For all his benefits toward me?

^[12]  ---

^[13]  I will take the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of Jehovah.

^[13]  ---

^[14]  I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people.

^[14]  ---

^[15]  Precious in the sight of Jehovah Is the death of his saints.

^[15]  ---

^[16]  O Jehovah, truly I am thy servant: I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bonds.

^[16]  ---

^[17]  I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of Jehovah.

^[17]  ---

^[18]  I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people,

^[18]  ---

^[19]  In the courts of Jehovah’s house, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
