New International Version |   | |
 |
| |
| | Psa 116:1 | I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
| |
| | Psa 116:2 | Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
| |
| | Psa 116:3 | The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.
| |
| | Psa 116:4 | Then I called on the name of the LORD: "O LORD, save me!"
| |
| | Psa 116:5 | The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
| |
| | Psa 116:6 | The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me.
| |
| | Psa 116:7 | Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
| |
| | Psa 116:8 | For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling,
| |
| | Psa 116:9 | that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
| |
| | Psa 116:10 | I believed; therefore I said, "I am greatly afflicted."
| |
| | Psa 116:11 | And in my dismay I said, "All men are liars."
| |
| | Psa 116:12 | How can I repay the LORD for all his goodness to me?
| |
| | Psa 116:13 | I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
| |
| | Psa 116:14 | I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
| |
| | Psa 116:15 | Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
| |
| | Psa 116:16 | O LORD, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant ; you have freed me from my chains.
| |
| | Psa 116:17 | I will sacrifice a thank offering to you and call on the name of the LORD.
| |
| | Psa 116:18 | I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
| |
| | Psa 116:19 | in the courts of the house of the LORD-- in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD.
