I love the Lord because He has heard my voice in supplication,
Because He has inclined His ear to me the day I called.
The cords of death encompassed me; the snares of the nether workd seized upon me; I fell into distress and sorrow,
And I called upon the Name of the Lord, “O Lord, save my life!”
Gracious is the Lord and just; yes, our God is merciful.
The Lord keeps the little ones; I ws brought low, and He saved me.
Return, O my soul, to your tranquillity, for the Lord has been good to you.
For he has freed my soul from death,my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
I shall walk before the Lord in the lands of the living.
Psalm 114
