in the presence of all his people,

in the courts of the house of the Lord,

in your midst, O Jerusalem.

Praise the Lord!

in the presence of all his people,

in the courts of the Lord’s house—

within you, Jerusalem.

Hallelujah!

and call on the name of the Lord.

I will fulfill my vows to the Lord

in the presence of all his people—

in the house of the Lord

in the heart of Jerusalem.

Praise the Lord!

the death of his faithful ones.

Ah, Yahweh, I am indeed your servant;

I am your servant, the child of your maidservant.

You have loosed my bonds.

I will offer to you a sacrifice of thanksgiving,

and proclaim the name of Yahweh.

I will pay my vows made to Yahweh

in the presence of all his people,

in the courts of the house of Yahweh,

in the midst of you, O Jerusalem.

Praise Yah!

Is the death of his saints.

O Lord, truly I am thy servant;

I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid:

Thou hast loosed my bonds.

I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving,

And will call upon the name of the Lord.

I will pay my vows unto the Lord

Now in the presence of all his people,

In the courts of the Lord’s house,

In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.

Praise ye the Lord.
