Psalm 116


I Love Yahweh

aI love Yahweh, because He bhears
My voice and my supplications.

2
Because He has ainclined His ear to me,
So I shall call upon Him in all my days.

3
The acords of death encompassed me
And the 1distresses of Sheol found me;
I found distress and sorrow.

4
Then aI called upon the name of Yahweh:
“O Yahweh, I beseech You, 1bprovide my soul escape!”


5
aGracious is Yahweh, and brighteous;
And our God is ccompassionate.

6
Yahweh keeps athe simple;
I was bbrought low, and He saved me.

7
Return to your arest, O my soul,
For Yahweh has bdealt bountifully with you.

8
For You have arescued my soul from death,
My eyes from tears,
My feet from stumbling.

9
I shall walk before Yahweh
In the 1aland of the living.

10
I abelieved when I said,
“I am bgreatly afflicted.”

11
I asaid in my alarm,
bAll men are liars.”


12
What shall I agive to Yahweh in return
For all His bbountiful dealings 1with me?

13
I shall lift up the acup of 1salvation
And bcall upon the name of Yahweh.

14
I shall apay my vows to Yahweh,
Oh may it be bin the presence of all His people.

15
aPrecious in the sight of Yahweh
Is the death of His holy ones.

16
O Yahweh, 1surely I am aYour slave,
I am Your slave, the bson of Your maidservant,
You have cloosed my bonds.

17
To You I shall offer aa sacrifice of thanksgiving,
And bcall upon the name of Yahweh.

18
I shall apay my vows to Yahweh,
Oh may it be in the presence of all His people,

19
In the acourts of the house of Yahweh,
In the midst of you, O bJerusalem.
1Praise Yah!
