The Book of Psalms

 

Chapter 116

 

 

1.

 

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

    
 
 

2.

 

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

    
 
 

3.

 

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

    
 
 

4.

 

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

    
 
 

5.

 

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

    
 
 

6.

 

Jehovah keepeth 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, my feet from falling.

    
 
 

9.

 

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

    
 
 

10.

 

I believed, therefore have I spoken. As for me, 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 perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people.

    
 
 

15.

 

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

    
 
 

16.

 

Yea, Jehovah! for 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 perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people,

    
 
 

19.

 

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