Ψαλμοί 116
1 αλληλουια ἠγάπησα ὅτι εἰσακούσεται κύριος τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου
I love Jehovah, because he heareth My voice and my supplications.
2 ὅτι ἔκλινεν τὸ οὖς αὐτοῦ ἐμοί καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις μου ἐπικαλέσομαι
Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, Therefore will I call [upon him] as long as I live.
The cords of death compassed me, And the pains of Sheol gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπεκαλεσάμην ὦ κύριε ῥῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου
Then called I upon the name of Jehovah: O Jehovah, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.
5 ἐλεήμων ὁ κύριος καὶ δίκαιος καὶ ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐλεᾷ
Gracious is Jehovah, and righteous; Yea, our God is merciful.
6 φυλάσσων τὰ νήπια ὁ κύριος ἐταπεινώθην καὶ ἔσωσέν με
Jehovah preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he saved me.
7 ἐπίστρεψον ἡ ψυχή μου εἰς τὴν ἀνάπαυσίν σου ὅτι κύριος εὐηργέτησέν σε
Return unto thy rest, O my soul; For Jehovah hath dealt bountifully with thee.
8 ὅτι ἐξείλατο τὴν ψυχήν μου ἐκ θανάτου τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου ἀπὸ δακρύων καὶ τοὺς πόδας μου ἀπὸ ὀλισθήματος
For thou hast delivered my soul from death, Mine eyes from tears, [And] my feet from falling.
9 εὐαρεστήσω ἐναντίον κυρίου ἐν χώρᾳ ζώντων
I will walk before Jehovah In the land of the living.
10 αλληλουια ἐπίστευσα διὸ ἐλάλησα ἐγὼ δὲ ἐταπεινώθην σφόδρα
I believe, for I will speak: I was greatly afflicted:
11 ἐγὼ εἶπα ἐν τῇ ἐκστάσει μου πᾶς ἄνθρωπος ψεύστης
I said in my haste, All men are liars.
12 τί ἀνταποδώσω τῷ κυρίῳ περὶ πάντων ὧν ἀνταπέδωκέν μοι
What shall I render unto Jehovah For all his benefits toward me?
13 ποτήριον σωτηρίου λήμψομαι καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπικαλέσομαι
I will take the cup of salvation, And call upon the name of Jehovah.
I will pay my vows unto Jehovah, Yea, in the presence of all his people.
15 τίμιος ἐναντίον κυρίου ὁ θάνατος τῶν ὁσίων αὐτοῦ
Precious in the sight of Jehovah Is the death of his saints.
16 ὦ κύριε ἐγὼ δοῦλος σός ἐγὼ δοῦλος σὸς καὶ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου διέρρηξας τοὺς δεσμούς μου
O Jehovah, truly I am thy servant: I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid; Thou hast loosed my bonds.
17 σοὶ θύσω θυσίαν αἰνέσεως
I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving, And will call upon the name of Jehovah.
18 τὰς εὐχάς μου τῷ κυρίῳ ἀποδώσω ἐναντίον παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ

19 ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου κυρίου ἐν μέσῳ σου Ιερουσαλημ
In the courts of Jehovah’s house, In the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye Jehovah.
