|
|
\b
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 1 Yahweh, I praise you because you rescued me. You did not allow me to die or my enemies to gloat over me.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 2 Yahweh, my God, I called out for you to help me when I was wounded, and you healed me.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 3 You saved me from death. I was nearly dead, but you caused me to become healthy again.
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 4 All you who are faithful to the covenant with Yahweh, sing to praise him! Remember what God, the holy one, has done and thank him!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 5 When he becomes angry, he is angry for only a very short time, but he is good to us all of our lives.
|
|
\q1 We may cry during the night, but the next morning we will be joyful.

|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 6 As for me, I was calm when I said to myself, "No one will defeat me!"
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 7 Yahweh, because you were good to me, at first you caused me to be secure as though I were a high mountain.
|
|
\q1 But then I thought that you had turned away from me, and I became afraid.
|
|
\b
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 8 So I called out to you, and I pleaded for you to help me.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 9 I said, "Yahweh, what will you gain if I die?
|
|
\q1 In what way will it benefit you if I go to the place where the dead people are?
|
|
\q1 When I am dead I will certainly not able to praise you, and I will not able to tell others that you are trustworthy!
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 10 Yahweh, listen to me, and act mercifully to me! Yahweh, help me!"
|
|
\b
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 11 But now you have healed me, and you have changed me from being sad to dancing joyfully.
|
|
\q1 You have taken away the clothes that showed that I was very sad and given me clothes that showed that I was very joyful.
|
|
\q1
|
|
\v 12 So I will not be silent; I will sing out and praise you.
|
|
\q1 Yahweh, you are my God, and I will thank you forever.
