Psalm 116

1 love the LORD,

Because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.

Because he hath inclined his ear unto me,

Therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.

The sorrows of death compassed me,

And the pains of hell gat hold upon me:

I found trouble and sorrow.

Then called I upon the name of the LORD;

O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

Gracious is the LORD, and righteous;

Yea, our God is merciful.

The LORD preserveth the simple:

I was brought low, and he helped me.

Return unto thy rest, O my soul;

For the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.

For thou hast delivered my soul from death,

Mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

I will walk before

The LORD in the land of the living.

I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:

11I said in my haste, all men are liars.

What shall I render unto the LORD

For all his benefits toward me?

I will take the cup of salvation,

And call upon the name of the LORD.

I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.

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

O LORD, truly I am thy servant;

I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: Thou hast loosed my bonds.

I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving,

And will call upon the name of the LORD.

I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,

In the courts of the LORD's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.

Praise ye the LORD.
