Chapter 116 | |
1 | I love YHVH, 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 YHVH; O YHVH, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. |
5 | Gracious is YHVH, and righteous; yea, our ELOHIYM is merciful. |
6 | YHVH preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me. |
7 |
Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for YHVH 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 YHVH 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 YHVH for all his benefits toward me? |
13 | I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of YHVH. |
14 | I will pay my vows unto YHVH now in the presence of all his people. |
15 | Precious in the sight of YHVH is the death of his saints. |
16 | O YHVH, 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 YHVH. |
18 | I will pay my vows unto YHVH now in the presence of all his people. |
19 | In the courts of YHVH's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye YAH. |
