Ψαλμοί 116
1 αλληλουια ἠγάπησα ὅτι εἰσακούσεται κύριος τῆς φωνῆς τῆς δεήσεώς μου
I love the LORD, because he hath heard my voice [and] my supplications.
2 ὅτι ἔκλινεν τὸ οὖς αὐτοῦ ἐμοί καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις μου ἐπικαλέσομαι
Because he hath inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call upon [him] as long as I live.
The sorrows of death encompassed me, and the pains of hell came upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
4 καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπεκαλεσάμην ὦ κύριε ῥῦσαι τὴν ψυχήν μου
Then I called upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul.
5 ἐλεήμων ὁ κύριος καὶ δίκαιος καὶ ὁ θεὸς ἡμῶν ἐλεᾷ
Gracious [is] the LORD, and righteous; yes, our God [is] merciful.
6 φυλάσσων τὰ νήπια ὁ κύριος ἐταπεινώθην καὶ ἔσωσέν με
The LORD preserveth the simple: I was brought low, and he helped me.
7 ἐπίστρεψον ἡ ψυχή μου εἰς τὴν ἀνάπαυσίν σου ὅτι κύριος εὐηργέτησέν σε
Return to thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD 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, my eyes from tears, [and] my feet from falling.
9 εὐαρεστήσω ἐναντίον κυρίου ἐν χώρᾳ ζώντων
I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10 αλληλουια ἐπίστευσα διὸ ἐλάλησα ἐγὼ δὲ ἐταπεινώθην σφόδρα
I believed, therefore have I spoken: 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 to the LORD [for] all his benefits towards me?
13 ποτήριον σωτηρίου λήμψομαι καὶ τὸ ὄνομα κυρίου ἐπικαλέσομαι
I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD.
I will pay my vows to the LORD now in the presence of all his people.
15 τίμιος ἐναντίον κυρίου ὁ θάνατος τῶν ὁσίων αὐτοῦ
Precious in the sight of the LORD [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 LORD, 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 the LORD.
18 τὰς εὐχάς μου τῷ κυρίῳ ἀποδώσω ἐναντίον παντὸς τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτοῦ
I will pay my vows to the LORD now in the presence of all his people,
19 ἐν αὐλαῖς οἴκου κυρίου ἐν μέσῳ σου Ιερουσαλημ
In the courts of the LORD'S house, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
