Psalms 116:1-9

1I love Yhwh, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.

2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.1

3The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.2

4Then called I upon the name of Yhwh; O Yhwh, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.

5Gracious is Yhwh, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.

6Yhwh preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.

7Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Yhwh hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.

9I will walk before Yhwh in the land of the living.
