Chapter Text
116:1 I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voyce and my prayers.
116:2 For he hath inclined his eare vnto me, whe I did call vpon him in my dayes.
116:3 When the snares of death copassed me, and the griefes of the graue caught me: when I founde trouble and sorowe.
116:4 Then I called vpon the Name of the Lord, saying, I beseech thee, O Lord, deliuer my soule.
116:5 The Lord is mercifull and righteous, and our God is full of compassion.
116:6 The Lord preserueth the simple: I was in miserie and he saued me.
116:7 Returne vnto thy rest, O my soule: for the Lord hath bene beneficiall vnto thee,
116:8 Because thou hast deliuered my soule from death, mine eyes from teares, and my feete from falling.
116:9 I shall walke before the Lord in the lande of the liuing.
116:10 I beleeued, therefore did I speake: for I was sore troubled.
116:11 I said in my feare, All men are lyers.
116:12 What shall I render vnto the Lord for all his benefites toward me?
116:13 I will take the cup of saluation, and call vpon the Name of the Lord.
116:14 I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people.
116:15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saintes.
116:16 Beholde, Lord: for I am thy seruant, I am thy seruant, and the sonne of thine handmaide: thou hast broken my bondes.
116:17 I will offer to thee a sacrifice of prayse, and will call vpon the Name of the Lord.
116:18 I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people,
116:19 In the courtes of ye Lords house, euen in the middes of thee, O Ierusalem. Praise ye the Lord.
