Psalms - Chapter 116

Chapter 115 | Psalms | Contents

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