Psalms 116
116
1I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice
and my supplications.
2Because He has inclined His ear to me,
therefore will I call upon Him as long as I live.
3The cords of death encompassed me,
and the pangs of Sheol took hold of me;
I found trouble and sorrow.
4Then I called upon the name of the Lord: # Ps 118:5
“O Lord, I beseech You, deliver my soul.” # Ps 22:20
5Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; # Ezr 9:15; Ne 9:8
yes, our God is merciful.
6The Lord preserves the simple; # Ps 19:7
I was brought low, and He saved me. # Ps 79:8
7Return to your rest, O my soul, # Jer 6:16
for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you. # Ps 13:6
8For You have delivered my soul from death, # Ps 56:13; 86:13
my eyes from tears,
and my feet from stumbling.
9I will walk before the Lord
in the land of the living. # Ps 27:13
10I believed, even when I said: # 2Co 4:13
“I am greatly afflicted.”
11I said in my alarm, # Ps 31:22
“All men are liars.” # Ro 3:4
12What shall I render unto the Lord
for all His benefits to me? # Ps 103:2
13I will lift up the cup of salvation # Ps 16:5
and call upon the name of the Lord. # Ps 105:1
14I will pay my vows to the Lord,
now in the presence of all His people. # Ps 22:25; 116:18
15Precious in the sight of the Lord # Ps 72:14
is the death of His saints.
16O Lord, truly I am Your servant; # Ps 119:125; 143:12
I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; # Ps 86:16
You have loosed my bonds.
17I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, # Lev 7:12; Ps 50:14
and will call upon the name of the Lord.
18I will pay my vows to the Lord,
now in the presence of all His people, # Ps 116:14
19in the courts of the house of the Lord, # Ps 96:8; 135:2
in the midst of you, O Jerusalem.
Praise the Lord!
