Psalm 116

1 I love157 the LORD,3068 because3588 he has heard8085 my voice6963 and my supplications.8469

2 Because3588 he has inclined5186 his ear241 to me, therefore will I call7121 on him as long3117 as I live.3117

3 The sorrows2256 of death4194 compassed661 me, and the pains4712 of hell7585 got hold4672 on me: I found4672 trouble6869 and sorrow.3015

4 Then called7121 I on the name8034 of the LORD;3068 O LORD,3068 I beseech577 you, deliver4422 my soul.5315

5 Gracious2587 is the LORD,3068 and righteous;6662 yes, our God430 is merciful.7355

6 The LORD3068 preserves8104 the simple:6612 I was brought1809 low,1809 and he helped3467 me.

7 Return7725 to your rest,4496 O my soul;5315 for the LORD3068 has dealt1580 bountifully1580 with you.

8 For you have delivered2502 my soul5315 from death,4194 my eyes5869 from tears,1832 and my feet7272 from falling.1762

9 I will walk1980 before6440 the LORD3068 in the land776 of the living.2416

10 I believed,539 therefore3588 have I spoken:1696 I was greatly3966 afflicted:6031

11 I said559 in my haste,2648 All3605 men120 are liars.3576

12 What4100 shall I render7725 to the LORD3068 for all3605 his benefits8408 toward5921 me?

13 I will take5375 the cup3563 of salvation,3444 and call7121 on the name8034 of the LORD.3068

14 I will pay7999 my vows5088 to the LORD3068 now4994 in the presence5048 of all3605 his people.5971

15 Precious3368 in the sight5869 of the LORD3068 is the death4194 of his saints.2623

16 O LORD,3068 truly577 I am your servant;5650 I am your servant,5650 and the son1121 of your handmaid:519 you have loosed6605 my bonds.4147

17 I will offer2076 to you the sacrifice2077 of thanksgiving,8426 and will call7121 on the name8034 of the LORD.3068

18 I will pay7999 my vows5088 to the LORD3068 now4994 in the presence5048 of all3605 his people.5971

19 In the courts2691 of the LORD's3068 house,1004 in the middle8432 of you, O Jerusalem.3389 Praise1984 you the LORD.3068
