Psalms 116

Psalm 116

I love the Lord, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.

He Listens to My Voice

I love Jehovah, for he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications;

Because he turned his ear to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.

For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during [all] my days.

The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came over me;
I was overcome by distress and sorrow.

The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow:

Then I called on the name of the Lord:
“Lord, save me!”

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

The Lord is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.

Gracious is Jehovah and righteous; and our God is merciful.

The Lord protects the unwary;
when I was brought low, he saved me.

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

Return to your rest, my soul,
for the Lord has been good to you.

Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee.

For you, Lord, have delivered me from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,

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

that I may walk before the Lord
in the land of the living.

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

I trusted in the Lord when I said,
“I am greatly afflicted”;

I believed, therefore have I spoken. As for me, I was greatly afflicted.

in my alarm I said,
“Everyone is a liar.”

I said in my haste, All men are liars.

What shall I return to the Lord
for all his goodness to me?

What shall I render unto Jehovah, [for] all his benefits toward me?

I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the Lord.

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

I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people.

I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people.

Precious in the sight of the Lord
is the death of his faithful servants.

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

Truly I am your servant, Lord;
I serve you just as my mother did;
you have freed me from my chains.

Yea, Jehovah! for I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.

I will sacrifice a thank offering to you
and call on the name of the Lord.

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

I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people,

I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people,

in the courts of the house of the Lord —
in your midst, Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord.a

In the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
