1I would love if the Lord would listen to my voice, to my supplications;
2if He would turn His ear to me on the days when I call.
3The pangs of death encompassed me and the misery of the grave came upon me; I encounter trouble and sorrow.
4I invoke the Name of the Lord, "Lord, I implore you, deliver my soul!”
5The Lord is gracious and righteous; our God is compassionate.
6The Lord watches over the simpletons; I was brought low, and He saved me.
7Return, my soul, to your tranquility, for the Lord has bestowed goodness upon you.
8For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
9I shall walk before the Lord in the lands of the living.
10I had faith even when I declared, "I am greatly afflicted";
11[even when] I said in my haste, "All men are deceitful.”
12How can I repay the Lord for all His beneficences to me?
13I will raise the cup of deliverance and proclaim the Name of the Lord.
14I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all His people.
15Grievous in the eyes of the Lord is the death of His pious ones.
16I thank you, Lord, that since I am Your servant, I am Your servant the son of Your maidservant, You have loosened my bonds.
17To You I will bring an offering of thanksgiving, and proclaim the Name of the Lord.
19in the courtyards of the House of the Lord, in the midst of Jerusalem. Praise the Lord!
