Psalms 116
1 I love Jehovah, for he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications;
| אָהַבְתִּי כִּי־יִשְׁמַע ׀ יְהֹוָה אֶת־קוֹלִי תַּחֲנוּנָֽי׃ |
2 For he hath inclined his ear unto me, and I will call upon him during [all] my days.
| כִּי־הִטָּה אׇזְנוֹ לִי וּבְיָמַי אֶקְרָֽא׃ |
3 The bands of death encompassed me, and the anguish of Sheol took hold of me; I found trouble and sorrow: (Sheol h7585)
| אֲפָפוּנִי ׀ חֶבְלֵי־מָוֶת וּמְצָרֵי שְׁאוֹל מְצָאוּנִי צָרָה וְיָגוֹן אֶמְצָֽא׃ (Sheol h7585) |
4 Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: I beseech thee, Jehovah, deliver my soul.
| וּבְשֵֽׁם־יְהֹוָה אֶקְרָא אָנָּה יְהֹוָה מַלְּטָה נַפְשִֽׁי׃ |
5 Gracious is Jehovah and righteous; and our God is merciful.
| חַנּוּן יְהֹוָה וְצַדִּיק וֵאלֹהֵינוּ מְרַחֵֽם׃ |
6 Jehovah keepeth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me.
| שֹׁמֵר פְּתָאיִם יְהֹוָה דַּלֹּתִי וְלִי יְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃ |
7 Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee.
| שׁוּבִי נַפְשִׁי לִמְנוּחָיְכִי כִּֽי־יְהֹוָה גָּמַל עָלָֽיְכִי׃ |
8 For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, my feet from falling.
| כִּי חִלַּצְתָּ נַפְשִׁי מִמָּוֶת אֶת־עֵינִי מִן־דִּמְעָה אֶת־רַגְלִי מִדֶּֽחִי׃ |
9 I will walk before Jehovah in the land of the living.
| אֶתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵי יְהֹוָה בְּאַרְצוֹת הַחַיִּֽים׃ |
10 I believed, therefore have I spoken. As for me, I was greatly afflicted.
| הֶאֱמַנְתִּי כִּי אֲדַבֵּר אֲנִי עָנִיתִי מְאֹֽד׃ |
11 I said in my haste, All men are liars.
| אֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי בְחׇפְזִי כׇּֽל־הָאָדָם כֹּזֵֽב׃ |
12 What shall I render unto Jehovah, [for] all his benefits toward me?
| מָה־אָשִׁיב לַיהֹוָה כׇּֽל־תַּגְמוּלוֹהִי עָלָֽי׃ |
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of Jehovah.
| כּוֹס־יְשׁוּעוֹת אֶשָּׂא וּבְשֵׁם יְהֹוָה אֶקְרָֽא׃ |
14 I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people.
| נְדָרַי לַיהֹוָה אֲשַׁלֵּם נֶגְדָה־נָּא לְכׇל־עַמּֽוֹ׃ |
15 Precious in the sight of Jehovah is the death of his saints.
| יָקָר בְּעֵינֵי יְהֹוָה הַמָּוְתָה לַחֲסִידָֽיו׃ |
16 Yea, Jehovah! for I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid: thou hast loosed my bonds.
| אָנָּה יְהֹוָה כִּֽי־אֲנִי עַבְדֶּךָ אֲנִי־עַבְדְּךָ בֶּן־אֲמָתֶךָ פִּתַּחְתָּ לְמֽוֹסֵרָֽי׃ |
17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call upon the name of Jehovah.
| לְֽךָ־אֶזְבַּח זֶבַח תּוֹדָה וּבְשֵׁם יְהֹוָה אֶקְרָֽא׃ |
18 I will perform my vows unto Jehovah, yea, before all his people,
| נְדָרַי לַיהֹוָה אֲשַׁלֵּם נֶגְדָה־נָּא לְכׇל־עַמּֽוֹ׃ |
19 In the courts of Jehovah's house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
| בְּחַצְרוֹת ׀ בֵּית יְהֹוָה בְּֽתוֹכֵכִי יְֽרוּשָׁלָ͏ִם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ |
