Psalm 116

LXX

NIV

1 I am well pleased, because the Lord will hearken to the voice of my supplication.
1 I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
2 Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call upon him while I live.
2 Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
3 The pangs of death compassed me; the dangers of hell found me: I found affliction and sorrow.
3 The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came over me; I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
4 Then I called on the name of the Lord: O Lord, deliver my soul.
4 Then I called on the name of the LORD: “LORD, save me!”
5 The Lord is merciful and righteous; yea, our God has pity.
5 The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
6 The Lord preserves the simple: I was brought low, and he delivered me.
6 The LORD protects the unwary; when I was brought low, he saved me.
7 Return to thy rest, O my soul; for the Lord has dealt bountifully with thee.
7 Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
8 For he has delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
8 For you, LORD, have delivered me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling,
9 I shall be well-pleasing before the Lord in the land of the living.
9 that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10 I believed, wherefore I have spoken: but I was greatly afflicted.
10 I trusted in the LORD when I said, “I am greatly afflicted”;
11 And I said in mine amazement, Every man is a liar.
11 in my alarm I said, “Everyone is a liar.”
12 What shall I render to the Lord for all the things wherein he has rewarded me?
12 What shall I return to the LORD for all his goodness to me?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord, in the presence of all his people.
14 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
15 Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his faithful servants.
16 O Lord, I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast burst by bonds asunder.
16 Truly I am your servant, LORD; I serve you just as my mother did; you have freed me from my chains.
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of praise, and will call upon the name of the Lord.
17 I will sacrifice a thank offering to you and call on the name of the LORD.
18 I will pay my vows unto the Lord, in the presence of all his people,
18 I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
19 in the courts of the Lord’s house, in the midst of thee, Jerusalem.
19 in the courts of the house of the LORD— in your midst, Jerusalem. Praise the LORD.
