1 I love the Lord,
for he has heard the voice of my supplication; ♦︎
because he inclined his ear to me
on the day I called to him.
2 The snares of death encompassed me;
the pains of hell took hold of me; ♦︎
by grief and sorrow was I held.
3 Then I called upon the name of the Lord: ♦︎
‘O Lord, I beg you, deliver my soul.’
10 How shall I repay the Lord ♦︎
for all the benefits he has given to me?
11 I will lift up the cup of salvation ♦︎
and call upon the name of the Lord.
12 I will fulfil my vows to the Lord ♦︎
in the presence of all his people.
13 Precious in the sight of the Lord ♦︎
is the death of his faithful servants.
14 O Lord, I am your servant, ♦︎
your servant, the child of your handmaid;
you have freed me from my bonds.
15 I will offer to you a sacrifice of thanksgiving ♦︎
and call upon the name of the Lord.
16 I will fulfil my vows to the Lord ♦︎
in the presence of all his people,
17 In the courts of the house of the Lord, ♦︎
in the midst of you, O Jerusalem.
Alleluia.

26On that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah:
We have a strong city;
he sets up victory
like walls and bulwarks.
2 Open the gates,
so that the righteous nation that keeps faith
may enter in.
3 Those of steadfast mind you keep in peace—
in peace because they trust in you.
4 Trust in the Lord for ever,
for in the Lord God *
you have an everlasting rock.

13 Therefore prepare your minds for action;* discipline yourselves; set all your hope on the grace that Jesus Christ will bring you when he is revealed. 14Like obedient children, do not be conformed to the desires that you formerly had in ignorance. 15Instead, as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct; 16for it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy.’
