Trouble and anguish have taken hold on me: yet thy commandments are my delights.

I have been afflicted exceedingly, - O Yahweh, give me life according to thy word.

The meshes of death encompassed me, The torrents of perdition, made me afraid;

For my soul, is sated with misfortunes, And, my life - unto Hades, hath drawn near;

The meshes of death encompassed me, and the distresses of hades, came upon me, Peril and sorrow, I found;

Out of the depths, have I cried unto thee, O Yahweh.

And he taketh Peter and James and John with him, and began to be exceedingly amazed, and in great distress;

In thy statutes, will I find my dear delight, I will not forget thy word.

The command of his lips, and would not go back, and, in my bosom, have I treasured the words of his lips.

Jesus saith unto them - My food, is, that I should do the will of him that sent me, and complete, his work.
