1I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.
1When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a people of foreign language,
2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.
2Judah became his sanctuary, Israel his dominion.
3The sorrows of death have encompassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:
3The sea saw it, and fled. The Jordan was driven back.
4And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.
4The mountains skipped like rams, the little hills like lambs.
5The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.
5What was it, you sea, that you fled? You Jordan, that you turned back?
6The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was little and he delivered me.
6You mountains, that you skipped like rams? You little hills, like lambs?
7Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.
7Tremble, you earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,
8For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
8who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of waters.
9I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
