Psalm 116
NKJV Parallel ISV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New King James VersionInternational Standard Version
1I love the LORD, because He has heard My voice and my supplications.1I love the LORD because he has heard my prayer for mercy;
2Because He has inclined His ear to me, Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.2for he listens to me whenever I call.
3The pains of death surrounded me, And the pangs of Sheol laid hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow.3The ropes of death were wound around me and the anguish of Sheol came upon me; I encountered distress and sorrow.
4Then I called upon the name of the LORD: “O LORD, I implore You, deliver my soul!”4Then I called on the name of the LORD, "LORD, please deliver me!"
5Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yes, our God is merciful.5The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is compassionate;
6The LORD preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me.6the LORD watches over the innocent; I was brought low, and he delivered me.
7Return to your rest, O my soul, For the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.7Return to your resting place, my soul, for the LORD treated you generously.
8For You have delivered my soul from death, My eyes from tears, And my feet from falling.8Indeed, you delivered my soul from death, my eyes from crying, and my feet from stumbling.
9I will walk before the LORD In the land of the living.9I will walk in the LORD's presence in the lands of the living.
10I believed, therefore I spoke, “I am greatly afflicted.”10I will continue to believe, even when I say, "I am greatly afflicted"
11I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”11and speak hastily, "All people are liars!"
12What shall I render to the LORD For all His benefits toward me?12What will I return to the LORD for all his benefits to me?
13I will take up the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of the LORD.13I will raise my cup of deliverance and invoke the LORD's name.
14I will pay my vows to the LORD Now in the presence of all His people.14I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people.
15Precious in the sight of the LORD Is the death of His saints.15In the sight of the LORD, the death of his faithful ones is valued.
16O LORD, truly I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have loosed my bonds.16LORD, I am indeed your servant. I am your servant. I am the son of your handmaid. You have released my bonds.
17I will offer to You the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of the LORD.17I will bring you a thanksgiving offering and call on the name of the LORD!
18I will pay my vows to the LORD Now in the presence of all His people,18I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people,
19In the courts of the LORD’s house, In the midst of you, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!19in the courts of the LORD's house, in your midst, Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
