116:1  I love the LORD because He has heard my appeal for mercy.
116:2  Because He has turned His ear to me, I will call out to Him as long as I live.
116:3  The ropes of death were wrapped around me, and the torments of Sheol overcame me; I encountered trouble and sorrow.
116:4  Then I called on the name of Yahweh:" Yahweh, save me!"
116:5  The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is compassionate.
116:6  The LORD guards the inexperienced; I was helpless, and He saved me.
116:7  Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
116:8  For You, LORD, rescued me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
116:9  I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
116:10  I believed, even when I said," I am severely afflicted."
116:11  In my alarm I said," Everyone is a liar."
116:12  How can I repay the LORD for all the good He has done for me?
116:13  I will take the cup of salvation and call on the name of Yahweh.
116:14  I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people.
116:15  The death of His faithful ones is valuable in the LORD's sight.
116:16   LORD, I am indeed Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your female servant. You have loosened my bonds.
116:17  I will offer You a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of Yahweh.
116:18  I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people,
116:19  in the courts of the LORD's house-- within you, Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
