Psalm 116
1 I love
the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my
supplications.
2 Because he hath inclined his ear unto me,
therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
3 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains
of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and
sorrow.
4 Then called I upon the name of the Lord; O Lord, I
beseech thee, deliver my soul.
5 Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; yea, our God
is merciful.
6 The Lord preserveth the simple: I was brought low,
and he helped me.
7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord hath
dealt bountifully with thee.
8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine
eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before the Lord in the land of the
living.
10 I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was
greatly afflicted:
11 I said in my haste, All men are liars.
12 What shall I render unto the Lord for all his
benefits toward me?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon
the name of the Lord.
14 I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the
presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of
his saints.
16 O Lord, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant,
and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my
bonds.
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of
thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the
Lord.
18 I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the
presence of all his people,
19 In the courts of the Lord's house, in the midst
of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
