NHEBJE - Psalms - 116

116:1  I love Jehovah, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.

116:2  Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.

116:3  The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow.

116:4  Then I called on the name of Jehovah: "Jehovah, I beg you, deliver my soul."

116:5  Jehovah is Gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.

116:6  Jehovah preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.

116:7  Return to your rest, my soul, for Jehovah has dealt bountifully with you.

116:8  For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

116:9  I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.

116:10  I believed, therefore I said, "I am greatly afflicted."

116:11  I said in my haste, "All men are liars."

116:12  What will I give to Jehovah for all his benefits toward me?

116:13  I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Jehovah.

116:14  I will pay my vows to Jehovah, yes, in the presence of all his people.

116:15  Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his holy ones.

116:16  Jehovah, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your handmaid. You have freed me from my chains.

116:17  I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on the name of Jehovah.

116:18  I will pay my vows to Jehovah, yes, in the presence of all his people,

116:19  in the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
