1 I haue loued: because God hath hearde my voyce and my prayers.
2 Because he hath enclined his eare vnto me: therfore I wyll call vpon hym as long as I lyue.
3 The snares of death compassed me rounde about: and the paynes of hell toke holde on me. I founde anguishe and heauinesse,
4 but I called vpon the name of God: saying O God, I beseche thee deliuer my soule
5 Gratious is God and ryghteous: our Lorde is mercifull.
6 God gardeth the simple: I was brought to the extremitie, and he preserued me.
7 Returne O my soule vnto thy rest: for God hath rewarded thee.
8 For thou O Lorde hast deliuered my soule from death: myne eyes from teares, and my feete from fallyng.
9 I wyll walke before the face of God: in the lande of the lyuyng.
10 I beleued, therfore I wyll speake: I was sore afflicted,
11 insomuch that I said in my rashnesse euery man is a lyer.
12 What rewarde shal I geue vnto God: for all the benefites that he hath done vnto me?
13 I wyll take the cuppe of saluation: and I wyll call vpon the name of God.
14 I wyll pay my vowes nowe vnto God: in the presence of all his people.
15 The death of his saintes: is precious in the eyes of God.
16 It is euen so O God, for I am thy seruaunt and the sonne of thy handemayde: thou hast loosed my bondes in sunder.
17 I wyll offer vnto thee the sacrifice of thankesgeuyng: and I wyll call vpon the name of God.
18 I wyll pay my vowes vnto God in the sight of all his people:
19 in the courtes of Gods house, euen in the myddest of thee O Hierusalem. Prayse ye the Lorde.
