Psalm 116 (YLT)

¹ I have loved, because Jehovah heareth My voice, my supplication,

² Because He hath inclined His ear to me, And during my days I call.

³ Compassed me have cords of death, And straits of Sheol have found me, Distress and sorrow I find.

⁴ And in the name of Jehovah I call: I pray Thee, O Jehovah, deliver my soul,

⁵ Gracious <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah, and righteous, Yea, our God <FI>is<Fi> merciful,

⁶ A preserver of the simple <FI>is<Fi> Jehovah, I was low, and to me He giveth salvation.

⁷ Turn back, O my soul, to thy rest, For Jehovah hath conferred benefits on thee.

⁸ For Thou hast delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, my feet from overthrowing.

⁹ I walk habitually before Jehovah In the lands of the living.

¹⁰ I have believed, for I speak, I--I have been afflicted greatly.

¹¹ I said in my haste, `Every man <FI>is<Fi> a liar.'

¹² What do I return to Jehovah? All His benefits <FI>are<Fi> upon me.

¹³ The cup of salvation I lift up, And in the name of Jehovah I call.

¹⁴ My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people.

¹⁵ Precious in the eyes of Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> the death for His saints.

¹⁶ Cause <FI>it<Fi> to come, O Jehovah, for I <FI>am<Fi> Thy servant. I <FI>am<Fi> Thy servant, son of Thy handmaid, Thou hast opened my bonds.

¹⁷ To Thee I sacrifice a sacrifice of thanks, And in the name of Jehovah I call.

¹⁸ My vows to Jehovah let me complete, I pray you, before all His people,

¹⁹ In the courts of the house of Jehovah, In thy midst, O Jerusalem, praise ye Jah!
