Psalms
Chapter 116

1. I love Jehovah, because he heareth 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 cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
4. Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: O Jehovah, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.
5. Gracious is Jehovah, and righteous; Yea, our God is merciful.
6. Jehovah preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me.
7. Return unto thy rest, O my soul; For Jehovah 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 Jehovah In the land of the living.
10. I believe, for I will speak: I was greatly afflicted:
11. I said in my haste, All men are liars.
12. What shall I render unto Jehovah For all his benefits toward me?
13. I will take the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of Jehovah.
14. I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people.
15. Precious in the sight of Jehovah Is the death of his saints.
16. O Jehovah, truly I am thy servant: I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bonds.
17. I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of Jehovah.
18. I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people,
19. In the courts of Jehovah's house, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
