| 1 | I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer. |
| 2 | Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him. |
| 3 | The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: |
| 4 | And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul. |
| 5 | The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy. |
| 6 | The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me. |
| 7 | Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee. |
| 8 | For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling. |
| 9 | I will please the Lord in the land of the living. |
