1 Alleluia. I loved the Lord; for the Lord shall hear the voice of my prayer.10 I believed, for which thing I spake; forsooth I was made low full much.11 I said in my passing; Each man is a liar.12 What shall I yield to the Lord; for all things which he hath yielded to me?13 I shall take the cup of health; and I shall inwardly call the name of the Lord.14 I shall yield my vows to the Lord before all his people;15 the death of saints of the Lord is precious in his sight.16 O! Lord, for I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds,17 to thee I shall offer a sacrifice of praising; and I shall inwardly call the name of the Lord.18 I shall yield my vows to the Lord, in the sight of all his people;19 in the foreyards of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, Jerusalem.2 For he bowed down his ear to me; and I shall inwardly call him in my days.3 The sorrows of death encompass-ed me; and the perils of hell found me. I found tribulation and sorrow;4 and I called inwardly the name of the Lord. Thou, Lord, deliver my soul;5 the Lord is merciful, and just [or rightwise]; and our God doeth mercy.6 And the Lord keepeth little children; I was meeked, and he delivered me.7 My soul, turn thou into thy rest; for the Lord hath done well to thee.8 For he hath delivered my soul from death; mine eyes from weepings, and my feet from falling down.9 I shall please the Lord; in the country of them that live.
