Psalm 116

1I love Yahweh because he hears 2Because he listened to me, 3The cords of death surrounded me, 4Then I called on the name of Yahweh: 5Yahweh is merciful and fair; 6Yahweh protects the naive; 7My soul can return to its resting place, 8For you rescued my life from death, 9I will serve Yahweh 10I believed in him, even when I said, 11In my confusion I said, 12How can I repay Yahweh 13I will raise the cup of salvation, 14I will fulfill my vows to Yahweh 15Precious in the sight of Yahweh 16Yahweh, indeed, I am your servant; 17I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving 18I will fulfill my vows to Yahweh
