Salmo 116

¹ I love Jehovah, for he hath heard my voice and my supplications; ² For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during all my days. ³ The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow: ⁴ Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: I beseech thee, Jehovah, deliver my soul. ⁵ Gracious is Jehovah and righteous; and our God is merciful. ⁶ Jehovah keepeth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me. ⁷ Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee. ⁸ For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, my feet from falling. ⁹ I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.

¹⁰ I believed, therefore have I spoken. As for me, I was greatly afflicted. ¹¹ I said in my haste, All men are liars. ¹² What shall I render unto Jehovah, for all his benefits toward me? ¹³ I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of Jehovah. ¹⁴ I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people. ¹⁵ Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his saints. ¹⁶ Yea, Jehovah! for I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds. ¹⁷ I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of Jehovah. ¹⁸ I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people, ¹⁹ In the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
