The text of the psalm
אָהַבְתִּי כִּי־יִשְׁמַע יְהוָה אֶת־קוֹלִי תַּחֲנוּנָֽי׃
I love that the LORD should hear my voice and my supplications.
כִּי־הִטָּה אָזְנוֹ לִי וּבְיָמַי אֶקְרָֽא׃
Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, Therefore will I call upon Him all my days.
אֲפָפוּנִי חֶבְלֵי־מָוֶת וּמְצָרֵי שְׁאוֹל מְצָאוּנִי צָרָה וְיָגוֹן אֶמְצָֽא׃
The cords of death compassed me, And the straits of the nether-world got hold upon me; I found trouble and sorrow.
וּבְשֵׁם־יְהוָה אֶקְרָא אָנָּה יְהוָה מַלְּטָה נַפְשִֽׁי׃
But I called upon the name of the LORD: 'I beseech thee, O LORD, deliver my soul.'
חַנּוּן יְהֹוָה וְצַדִּיק וֵאלֹהֵינוּ מְרַחֵֽם׃
Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yea, our God is compassionate.
שֹׁמֵר פְּתָאיִם יְהֹוָה דַּלּוֹתִי וְלִי יְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃
The LORD preserveth the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.
שׁוּבִי נַפְשִׁי לִמְנוּחָיְכִי כִּי־יְהוָה גָּמַל עָלָֽיְכִי׃
Return, O my soul, unto Thy rest; For the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
כִּי חִלַּצְתָּ נַפְשִׁי מִמָּוֶת אֶת־עֵינִי מִן־דִּמְעָה אֶת־רַגְלִי מִדֶּֽחִי׃
For thou hast delivered my soul from death, Mine eyes from tears, And my feet from stumbling.
אֶתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵי יְהוָה בְּאַרְצוֹת הַֽחַיִּֽים׃
I shall walk before the LORD In the lands of the living.
הֶאֱמַנְתִּי כִּי אֲדַבֵּר אֲנִי עָנִיתִי מְאֹֽד׃
I trusted even when I spoke: 'I am greatly afflicted.'
אֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי בְחָפְזִי כָּל־הָאָדָם כֹּזֵֽב׃
I said in my haste: 'All men are liars.'
מָה־אָשִׁיב לַיהוָה כָּל־תַּגְמוּלוֹהִי עָלָֽי׃
How can I repay unto the LORD All His bountiful dealings toward me?
כּוֹס־יְשׁוּעוֹת אֶשָּׂא וּבְשֵׁם יְהוָה אֶקְרָֽא׃
I will lift up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD.
נְדָרַי לַיהוָה אֲשַׁלֵּם נֶגְדָה־נָּא לְכָל־עַמּֽוֹ׃
My vows will I pay unto the LORD, Yea, in the presence of all His people.
יָקָר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה הַמָּוְתָה לַחֲסִידָֽיו׃
Precious in the sight of the LORD Is the death of His saints.
אָנָּה יְהוָה כִּי־אֲנִי עַבְדֶּךָ אֲנִי־עַבְדְּךָ בֶּן־אֲמָתֶךָ פִּתַּחְתָּ לְמוֹסֵרָֽי׃
I beseech Thee, O LORD, for I am Thy servant; I am Thy servant, the son of Thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bands.
לְךָ־אֶזְבַּח זֶבַח תּוֹדָה וּבְשֵׁם יְהוָה אֶקְרָֽא׃
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD.
נְדָרַי לַיהוָה אֲשַׁלֵּם נֶגְדָה־נָּא לְכָל־עַמּֽוֹ׃
I will pay my vows unto the LORD, Yea, in the presence of all His people;
בְּחַצְרוֹת בֵּית יְהוָה בְּתוֹכֵכִי יְרוּשָׁלִָם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
In the courts of the LORD’S house, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
