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