Psalm 116 BSB

1 I love the LORD, for He has heard my voice— my appeal for mercy.

2 Because He has inclined His ear to me, I will call on Him as long as I live.

3 The ropes of death entangled me; the anguish of Sheol overcame me; I was confronted by trouble and sorrow.

4 Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, deliver my soul!”

5 The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.

6 The LORD preserves the simplehearted; I was helpless, and He saved me.

7 Return to your rest, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.

8 For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.

9 I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

10 I believed, therefore I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”

11 In my alarm I said, “All men are liars!”

12 How can I repay the LORD for all His goodness to me?

13 I will lift the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.

14 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people.

15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.

16 Truly, O LORD, I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have broken my bonds.

17 I will offer to You a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.

18 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people,

19 in the courts of the LORD’s house, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
