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 called I on the name of Yahweh: \"Yahweh, I beg you, deliver my soul.\"

5 Gracious is Yahweh, 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 men 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 the name of Yahweh.

14 I will pay my vows to Yahweh, Yes, in the presence of all his people.

15 Precious in the sight of Yahweh is the death of his saints.

16 Yahweh, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your handmaid. You have freed me from my chains.

17 I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call on the name of Yahweh.

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 midst of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
