¹I love Jehovah, for he hath heard my voice and my supplications; ²For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during all my days. ³The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow: ⁴Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: I beseech thee, Jehovah, deliver my soul. ⁵Gracious is Jehovah and righteous; and our God is merciful. ⁶Jehovah keepeth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me. ⁷Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee. ⁸For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, my feet from falling. ⁹I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.
