Psalms 114

¹I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer. ²Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him. ³The sorrows of death have compassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow: ⁴And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul. ⁵The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy. ⁶The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was humbled, and he delivered me. ⁷Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee. ⁸For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling. ⁹I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
