1I love Yahweh—because he heareth my voice, my supplications; 2Because he hath bowed down his ear unto me, therefore, throughout my days, will I call. 3The meshes of death encompassed me, and the distresses of hades, came upon me, Peril and sorrow, I found; 4But, on the Name of Yahweh, I called—I beseech thee, Yahweh, deliver my soul. 5Gracious is Yahweh and righteous, and, our God, is full of compassion. 6Yahweh, preserveth the simple, I was brought low, when, to me, he granted salvation. 7Return, O my soul, to thy rest, For, Yahweh, hath dealt bountifully with thee. 8For thou hast rescued my soul from death,—mine eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. 9I will walk to and fro before Yahweh, in the lands of life. 10 I believed that I should speak, I, was greatly depressed. 11I, said in mine alarm, All men, are false! 12How shall I give back to Yahweh, All his benefits unto me? 13The cup of salvation, will I lift, and, on the Name of Yahweh, will I call: 14My vows—to Yahweh, will I pay, Might it be in presence of all his people! 15Costly in the eyes of Yahweh, is, death, for his men of lovingkindness. 16I beseech thee, O Yahweh—for, I, am thy servant,—I, am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid, Thou hast loosened my bonds. 17To thee, will I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and, on the Name of Yahweh, will I call: 18My vows—to Yahweh, will I pay, Might it be in the presence of all his people;— 19In the courts of the house of Yahweh, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Yah!
