116:1 1 David being in great danger of Saul in the desert of M[…], perceiving the great and inestimable love of God toward him, magnifieth such great mercies, 13 and protesteth that he will be thankful for the same. I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my prayers.
116:2 For he hath inclined his ear unto me, when I did call upon him in my days.
116:3 When the snares of death compassed me, and the griefs of the grave caught me: When I found trouble and sorrow.
116:4 Then I called upon the Name of the Lord, saying, I beseech thee, O Lord, deliver my soul.
116:5 The Lord is merciful and righteous, and our God is full of compassion.
116:6 The Lord preserveth the simple: I was in misery, and he saved me.
116:7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul: for the Lord hath been beneficial unto thee,
116:8 Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
116:9 I shall walk before the Lord in the land of the living.
116:10 I believed, therefore did I speak: for I was sore troubled.
116:12 What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits toward me?
116:13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the Name of the Lord.
116:14 I will pay my vows unto the Lord, even now in the presence of all his people.
116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saints.
116:16 Behold, Lord: for I am thy servant, I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast broken my bonds.
116:17 I will offer to thee a sacrifice of praise, and will call upon the Name of the Lord.
116:18 I will pay my vows unto the Lord, even now in the presence of all his people,
116:19 In the courts of the Lord’s house, even in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
