| 1: I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my
supplications. |
| |
| 2: Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I
call upon him as long as I live. |
| |
| 3:
The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat
hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. |
| |
| 4: Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech
thee, deliver my soul. |
| |
| 5: Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
|
| |
| 6: The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he
helped me. |
| |
| 7: Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt
bountifully with thee. |
| |
| 8: For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine 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 have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
|
| |
| 11: I said in my haste, All men are liars. |
| |
| 12: What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward
me? |
| |
| 13: I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of
the LORD. |
| |
| 14: I will pay my vows unto 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 thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son
of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds. |
| |
| 17: I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will
call upon the name of the LORD. |
| |
| 18: I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all
his people, |
| |
| 19: In the courts of the LORD's house, in the midst of thee, O
Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD. |
