Psalm 116

 I love the LORD, because He has heard My voice and my supplications. 
  Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live. 
  The pains of death surrounded me, And the pangs of Sheol laid hold of me; 
I found trouble and sorrow. 
  Then I called upon the name of the LORD: "O LORD, I implore You, deliver my soul!" 
 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yes, our God is merciful. 
  The LORD preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me. 
  Return to your rest, O my soul, For the LORD has dealt bountifully with you. 
  For You have delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, And my feet from falling. 
  I will walk before the LORD In the land of the living. 
  I believed, therefore I spoke, "I am greatly afflicted." 
  I said in my haste, "All men are liars." 
  What shall I render to the LORD For all His benefits toward me? 
  I will take up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD. 
  I will pay my vows to the LORD Now in the presence of all His people. 
  Precious in the sight of the LORD Is the death of His saints. 
  O LORD, truly I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have loosed my bonds. 
 I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD. 
  I will pay my vows to the LORD Now in the presence of all His people, 
  In the courts of the LORD's house, In the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
