I love the LORD, because He has heard My voice and my supplications.
|
2 |
Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.
|
3 |
The pains of death surrounded me, And the pangs of Sheol laid hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow.
|
4 |
Then I called upon the name of the LORD: “O LORD, I implore You, deliver my soul!”
|
5 |
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yes, our God is merciful.
|
6 |
The LORD preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
|
7 |
Return to your rest, O my soul, For the LORD 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 the LORD In the land of the living.
|
10 |
I believed, therefore I spoke, “I am greatly afflicted.”
|
11 |
I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”
|
12 |
What shall I render to the LORD For all His benefits toward me?
|
13 |
I will take up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD.
|
14 |
I will pay my vows to the LORD Now in the presence of all His people.
|
15 |
Precious in the sight of the LORD Is the death of His saints.
|
16 |
O LORD, truly I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have loosed my bonds.
|
17 |
I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD.
|
18 |
I will pay my vows to the LORD Now in the presence of all His people,
|
19 |
In the courts of the LORD’s house, In the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
