Psalm 116

1 I love157 the LORD,3068 because3588 he hath heard8085 853 my voice6963 and my supplications.8469

2 Because3588 he hath inclined5186 his ear241 unto me, therefore will I call upon7121 him as long as I live.3117

3 The sorrows2256 of death4194 compassed661 me, and the pains4712 of hell7585 got hold upon4672 me: I found4672 trouble6869 and sorrow.3015

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

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

6 The LORD3068 preserveth8104 the simple:6612 I was brought low,1809 and he helped3467 me.

7 Return7725 unto thy rest,4494 O my soul;5315 for3588 the LORD3068 hath dealt bountifully1580 with5921 thee.

8 For3588 thou hast delivered2502 my soul5315 from death,4480 4194 853 mine eyes5869 from4480 tears,1832 and853 my feet7272 from falling.4480 1762

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

10 I believed,539 therefore3588 have I589 spoken:1696 I was greatly3966 afflicted: 6031

11 I589 said559 in my haste,2648 All3605 men120 are liars.3576

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

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

14 I will pay7999 my vows5088 unto 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 I589 am thy servant;5650 I589 am thy servant,5650 and the son1121 of thine handmaid:519 thou hast loosed6605 my bonds.4147

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

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

19 In the courts2691 of the LORD's3068 house,1004 in the midst8432 of thee, O Jerusalem.3389 Praise1984 ye the LORD.3050
