Psalms 116:1-4

11I love the Lord, because He 2hears My voice and my supplications.2Because He has 3inclined His ear to me, Therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live.3The 4cords of death encompassed me And the 5terrors of 6Sheol 7came upon me; I found distress and sorrow.4Then 8I called upon the name of the Lord: “O Lord, I beseech You, 910save my life!”
