Geneva1599 - Psalms - 116

116:1  I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voyce and my prayers.

116:2  For he hath inclined his eare vnto me, whe I did call vpon him in my dayes.

116:3  When the snares of death copassed me, and the griefes of the graue caught me: when I founde trouble and sorowe.

116:4  Then I called vpon the Name of the Lord, saying, I beseech thee, O Lord, deliuer my soule.

116:5  The Lord is mercifull and righteous, and our God is full of compassion.

116:6  The Lord preserueth the simple: I was in miserie and he saued me.

116:7  Returne vnto thy rest, O my soule: for the Lord hath bene beneficiall vnto thee,

116:8  Because thou hast deliuered my soule from death, mine eyes from teares, and my feete from falling.

116:9  I shall walke before the Lord in the lande of the liuing.

116:10  I beleeued, therefore did I speake: for I was sore troubled.

116:11  I said in my feare, All men are lyers.

116:12  What shall I render vnto the Lord for all his benefites toward me?

116:13  I will take the cup of saluation, and call vpon the Name of the Lord.

116:14  I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people.

116:15  Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saintes.

116:16  Beholde, Lord: for I am thy seruant, I am thy seruant, and the sonne of thine handmaide: thou hast broken my bondes.

116:17  I will offer to thee a sacrifice of prayse, and will call vpon the Name of the Lord.

116:18  I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people,

116:19  In the courtes of ye Lords house, euen in the middes of thee, O Ierusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
