1 Unto the end. For David, the servant of the Lord, who spoke the words of this canticle to the Lord, in the day that the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said:
2 I will love you, O Lord my strength.
3 The Lord is my firmament, my refuge, and my liberator. My God is my helper, and I hope in him: my protector, and the horn of my salvation, and my support.
4 Praising, I will call upon the Lord. And I will be saved from my enemies.
5 The sorrows of death surrounded me, and the torrents of iniquity dismayed me.
