Psalm 116

 ^116:1I love Yahweh, because he listens to my voice,
      And my cries for mercy.

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

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

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

 ^116:5Gracious is Yahweh, and righteous;
      Yes, our God is merciful.

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

 ^116:7Return to your rest, my soul,
      For Yahweh has dealt bountifully with you.

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

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

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

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

 ^116:12What will I give to Yahweh for all his benefits toward me?
      ^116:13I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Yahweh.

 ^116:14I will pay my vows to Yahweh,
      Yes, in the presence of all his people.

 ^116:15Precious in the sight of Yahweh is the death of his saints.

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

 ^116:17I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving,
      And will call on the name of Yahweh.

 ^116:18I will pay my vows to Yahweh,
      Yes, in the presence of all his people,

 ^116:19In the courts of Yahweh's house,
      In the midst of you, Jerusalem.

 Praise Yah!
