Psalms 116: (KJV)
|
1) I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.
|
2) Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
|
3) The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
|
4) Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.
|
5) Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
|
6) The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.
|
7) Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
|
8) For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
|
9) I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
|
10) I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
|
11) I said in my haste, All men are liars.
|
12) What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
|
13) I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
|
14) I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.
|
15) Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
|
16) O LORD, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
|
17) I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
|
18) I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,
|
19) In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
