Psalms 116

1 I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voyce and my prayers.

αλληλουια ἠγάπησα ὅτι εἰσακούσεται κύριος τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου

2 For he hath inclined his eare vnto me, whe I did call vpon him in my dayes.

ὅτι ἔκλινεν τὸ οὖς αὐτοῦ ἐμοί καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις μου ἐπικαλέσομαι

3 When the snares of death copassed me, and the griefes of the graue caught me: when I founde trouble and sorowe. (Sheol h7585)

περιέσχον με ὠδῖνες θανάτου κίνδυνοι ᾅδου εὕροσάν με θλῖψιν καὶ ὀδύνην εὗρον (Sheol h7585)

4 Then I called vpon the Name of the Lord, saying, I beseech thee, O Lord, deliuer my soule.

καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπεκαλεσάμην ὦ κύριε ῥῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου

5 The Lord is mercifull and righteous, and our God is full of compassion.

ἐλεήμων ὁ κύριος καὶ δίκαιος καὶ ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐλεᾷ

6 The Lord preserueth the simple: I was in miserie and he saued me.

φυλάσσων τὰ νήπια ὁ κύριος ἐταπεινώθην καὶ ἔσωσέν με

7 Returne vnto thy rest, O my soule: for the Lord hath bene beneficiall vnto thee,

ἐπίστρεψον ἡ ψυχή μου εἰς τὴν ἀνάπαυσίν σου ὅτι κύριος εὐηργέτησέν σε

8 Because thou hast deliuered my soule from death, mine eyes from teares, and my feete from falling.

ὅτι ἐξείλατο τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ θανάτου τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου ἀπὸ δακρύων καὶ τοὺς πόδας μου ἀπὸ ὀλισθήματος

9 I shall walke before the Lord in the lande of the liuing.

εὐαρεστήσω ἐναντίον κυρίου ἐν χώρᾳ ζώντων

10 I beleeued, therefore did I speake: for I was sore troubled.

αλληλουια ἐπίστευσα διὸ ἐλάλησα ἐγὼ δὲ ἐταπεινώθην σφόδρα

11 I said in my feare, All men are lyers.

ἐγὼ εἶπα ἐν τῇ ἐκστάσει μου πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ψεύστης

12 What shall I render vnto the Lord for all his benefites toward me?

τί ἀνταποδώσω τῷ κυρίῳ περὶ πάντων ὧν ἀνταπέδωκέν μοι

13 I will take the cup of saluation, and call vpon the Name of the Lord.

ποτήριον σωτηρίου λήμψομαι καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπικαλέσομαι

14 I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people.

15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saintes.

τίμιος ἐναντίον κυρίου ὁ θάνατος τῶν ὁσίων αὐτοῦ

16 Beholde, Lord: for I am thy seruant, I am thy seruant, and the sonne of thine handmaide: thou hast broken my bondes.

ὦ κύριε ἐγὼ δοῦλος σός ἐγὼ δοῦλος σὸς καὶ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου διέρρηξας τοὺς δεσμούς μου

17 I will offer to thee a sacrifice of prayse, and will call vpon the Name of the Lord.

σοὶ θύσω θυσίαν αἰνέσεως

18 I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people,

τὰς εὐχάς μου τῷ κυρίῳ ἀποδώσω ἐναντίον παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ

19 In the courtes of ye Lords house, euen in the middes of thee, O Ierusalem. Praise ye the Lord.

ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου κυρίου ἐν μέσῳ σου Ιερουσαλημ
