Psalms 116

luther1545 asv valera ls1910

¹I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications. ²Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live. ³The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. ⁴Then called I upon the name of the Lord; O Lord, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. ⁵Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful. ⁶The Lord preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me. ⁷Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee. ⁸For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. ⁹I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living. ¹⁰I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted: ¹¹I said in my haste, All men are liars. ¹²What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits toward me? ¹³I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord. ¹⁴I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all his people. ¹⁵Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. ¹⁶O Lord, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds. ¹⁷I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the Lord. ¹⁸I will pay my vows unto the Lord now in the presence of all his people, ¹⁹In the courts of the Lord’s house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
