Psalm 116

I love Jehovah because he hears my voice and my supplications.

Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call as long as I live.

The cords of death encompassed me, and the pains of Sheol got hold upon me. I found trouble and sorrow.

Then I called upon the name of Jehovah. O Jehovah, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

Gracious is Jehovah, and righteous. Yea, our God is merciful.

Jehovah preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.

Return to thy rest, O my soul, for Jehovah has dealt bountifully with thee.

For thou have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.

I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.

I believed, therefore I have spoken, but I was greatly afflicted.

I said in my haste, All men are liars.

What shall I render to Jehovah for all his benefits toward me?

I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of Jehovah.

I will pay my vows to Jehovah, yea, in the presence of all his people.

Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his sanctified.

O Jehovah, truly I am thy servant. I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid. Thou have loosed my bonds.

I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of Jehovah.

I will pay my vows to Jehovah, yea, in the presence of all his people,

in the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
