Psalms Chapter 116

Praise For Deliverance from Death
1   I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my supplications.
2   Because he has inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
3   The sorrows of death surrounded me, and the pangs of hell got hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
4   Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech you, deliver my soul.
5   Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
6   The  LORD  preserves  the  simple:  I  was brought low, and he helped me.
7   Return unto your rest, O my soul; for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.
8   For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9   I will walk before the LORD 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 the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
13   I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
14   I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.
15   Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his holy ones.
16   O LORD, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, and the son of your handmaid: you have loosed my bonds.
17   I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
18   I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,
19   In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst  of  you,  O  Jerusalem.  Praise  you  the LORD.
