^{Psalm 115 ← Psalm 116 → Psalm 117}

Return to: Home Page → Christianity → Bible → Old Testament → Psalms

1	I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my pleas for mercy.
2	Because he inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3	The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish.
4	Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, I pray, deliver my soul!”
5	Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; our God is merciful.
6	The LORD preserves the simple; when I was brought low, he saved me.
7	Return, O my soul, to your rest; for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.
8	For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling;
9	I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10	I believed, even when I spoke, “I am greatly afflicted”;
11	I said in my alarm, “All mankind are liars.”
12	What shall I render to the LORD for all his benefits to me?
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.
15	Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
16	O LORD, I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant. You have loosed my bonds.
17	I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.
18	I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
19	in the courts of the house of the LORD, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!

1	I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he heard my cry for mercy.
2	Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live.
3	The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.
4	Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, save me!”
5	The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
6	The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in great need, he saved me.
7	Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
8	For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling,
9	that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10	I believed; therefore I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”
11	And in my dismay I said, “All men are liars.”
12	How can I repay the LORD for all his goodness to me?
13	I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
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.
16	O LORD, truly I am your servant; I am your servant, the son of your maidservant; you have freed me from my chains.
17	I will sacrifice a thank offering to you and call on the name of the LORD.
18	I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
19	in the courts of the house of the LORD - in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD.

1	I love the LORD because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy.
2	Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!
3	Death wrapped its ropes around me; the terrors of the grave overtook me. I saw only trouble and sorrow.
4	Then I called on the name of the LORD: “Please, LORD, save me!”
5	How kind the LORD is! How good he is! So merciful, this God of ours!
6	The LORD protects those of childlike faith; I was facing death, and he saved me.
7	Let my soul be at rest again, for the LORD has been good to me.
8	He has saved me from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
9	And so I walk in the LORD's presence as I live here on earth!
10	I believed in you, so I said, “I am deeply troubled, LORD.”
11	In my anxiety I cried out to you, “These people are all liars!”
12	What can I offer the LORD for all he has done for me?
13	I will lift up the cup of salvation and praise the LORD's name for saving me.
14	I will keep my promises to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
15	The LORD cares deeply when his loved ones die.
16	O LORD, I am your servant; yes, I am your servant, born into your household; you have freed me from my chains.
17	I will offer you a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.
18	I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people–
19	in the house of the LORD in the heart of Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!

1	I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.
2	Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.
3	The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
4	Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.
5	Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.
6	The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.
7	Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.
8	For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9	I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10	I believed, therefore have I spoken: I was greatly afflicted:
11	I said in my haste, All men are liars.
12	What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
13	I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
14	I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people.
15	Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.
16	O LORD, truly I am thy servant; I am thy servant, and the son of thine handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
17	I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of the LORD.
18	I will pay my vows unto the LORD now in the presence of all his people,
19	In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
