116:1  I love Yahweh, 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 Yahweh: "Yahweh, I beg you, deliver my soul."
116:5  Yahweh is Gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.
116:6  Yahweh preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.
116:7  Return to your rest, my soul, for Yahweh 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 Yahweh in the land of the living.
116:10  I believed, therefore I said, "I was greatly afflicted."
116:11  I said in my haste, "All men are liars."
116:12  What will I give to Yahweh for all his benefits toward me?
116:13  I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the name of Yahweh.
116:14  I will pay my vows to Yahweh, yes, in the presence of all his people.
116:15  Precious in the sight of Yahweh is the death of his saints.
116:16  Yahweh, 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 Yahweh.
116:18  I will pay my vows to Yahweh, yes, in the presence of all his people,
116:19  in the courts of Yahweh's house, in the midst of you, Jerusalem. Praise Yah!
