1I love Yahuah, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy. 2Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live. 3The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow. 4Then I called on Yahuah’s name: “Yahuah, I beg you, deliver my soul.” 5Yahuah is gracious and righteous. Yes, our Elohim is merciful. 6Yahuah preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me. 7Return to your rest, my soul, for Yahuah has dealt bountifully with you. 8For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. 9I will walk before Yahuah in the land of the living. 10I believed, therefore I said, “I was greatly afflicted.” 11I said in my haste, “All people are liars.” 12What will I give to Yahuah for all his benefits toward me? 13I will take the cup of salvation, and call on Yahuah’s name. 14I will pay my vows to Yahuah, yes, in the presence of all his people. 15Precious in Yahuah’s sight is the death of his set-apart ones. 16Yahuah, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant girl. You have freed me from my chains. 17I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on Yahuah’s name. 18I will pay my vows to Yahuah, yes, in the presence of all his people, 19in the courts of Yahuah’s house, in the middle of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
