Psalms 116:1-9

1I loveH157 Jehovah, because he heareth My voiceH6963 and my supplicationsH8469.2Because he hath inclinedH5186 his earH241 unto me, Therefore will I callH7121upon himas long as I live.3The cordsH2256 of deathH4194 compassed me, And the painsH2256 of SheolH7585 gat hold upon me: I foundH4672 troubleH6869 and sorrowH3015.4Then calledH7121 I upon the nameH8034 of Jehovah: O Jehovah, I beseech thee, deliverH4422 my soulH5315.5GraciousH2587 is Jehovah, and righteousH6662; Yea, our GodH430 is merciful.6Jehovah preserveth the simple: I was brought lowH1809, and he savedH3467 me.7ReturnH7725 unto thy restH4496, O my soulH5315; For Jehovah hath dealtH1580 bountifullyH1580 with thee.8For thou hast delivered my soulH5315 from deathH4194, Mine eyesH5869 from tearsH1832, Andmy feetH7272 from falling.9I will walkH1980 before Jehovah In the landH776 of the living.
