תהילים 116

1 אָהַבְתִּי כִּֽי־יִשְׁמַע ׀ יְהוָה אֶת־קוֹלִי תַּחֲנוּנָֽי׃

It is lovely to me that the Lord heareth my voice, my supplications.

2 כִּֽי־הִטָּה אָזְנוֹ לִי וּבְיָמַי אֶקְרָֽא׃

For he hath inclined his ear unto me: therefore throughout all my days will I call on him.

3 אֲפָפוּנִי ׀ חֶבְלֵי־מָוֶת וּמְצָרֵי שְׁאוֹל מְצָאוּנִי צָרָה וְיָגוֹן אֶמְצָֽא׃ (Sheol h7585)

The bands of death had compassed me, and the pangs of the nether world had overtaken me; I had met with distress and sorrow: (Sheol h7585)

4 וּבְשֵֽׁם־יְהוָה אֶקְרָא אָנָּה יְהוָה מַלְּטָה נַפְשִֽׁי׃

I then called on the name of the Lord, I beseech thee, O Lord, release my soul.

5 חַנּוּן יְהֹוָה וְצַדִּיק וֵאלֹהֵינוּ מְרַחֵֽם׃

Gracious is the Lord, and righteous; and our God is merciful.

6 שֹׁמֵר פְּתָאיִם יְהֹוָה דַּלּוֹתִי וְלִי יְהוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃

The Lord preserveth the simple: I was in misery, and he helped me.

7 שׁוּבִי נַפְשִׁי לִמְנוּחָיְכִי כִּֽי־יְהוָה גָּמַל עָלָֽיְכִי׃

Return, O my soul, unto thy rest; for the Lord hath dealt bountifully with thee.

8 כִּי חִלַּצְתָּ נַפְשִׁי מִמָּוֶת אֶת־עֵינִי מִן־דִּמְעָה אֶת־רַגְלִי מִדֶּֽחִי׃

For thou hast delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.

9 אֶתְהַלֵּךְ לִפְנֵי יְהוָה בְּאַרְצוֹת הַֽחַיִּֽים׃

I will walk before the Lord in the land of life.

10 הֶאֱמַנְתִּי כִּי אֲדַבֵּר אֲנִי עָנִיתִי מְאֹֽד׃

I believe, therefore will I speak: I was greatly afflicted;

11 אֲנִי אָמַרְתִּי בְחָפְזִי כָּֽל־הָאָדָם כֹּזֵֽב׃

I indeed said in my despondency, Every man is a liar.

12 מָֽה־אָשִׁיב לַיהוָה כָּֽל־תַּגְמוּלוֹהִי עָלָֽי׃

What shall I give in return unto the Lord for all his bounties toward me?

13 כּוֹס־יְשׁוּעוֹת אֶשָּׂא וּבְשֵׁם יְהוָה אֶקְרָֽא׃

The cup of salvation will I lift up, and on the name of the Lord will I call.

14 נְדָרַי לַיהוָה אֲשַׁלֵּם נֶגְדָה־נָּא לְכָל־עַמּֽוֹ׃

My vows will I pay unto the Lord, yea, in the presence of all his people.

15 יָקָר בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה הַמָּוְתָה לַחֲסִידָֽיו׃

Grievous in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his pious ones.

16 אֽ͏ָנָּה יְהוָה כִּֽי־אֲנִי עַבְדֶּךָ אֲ‍ֽנִי־עַבְדְּךָ בֶּן־אֲמָתֶךָ פִּתַּחְתָּ לְמוֹסֵרָֽי׃

O Lord, truly am I thy servant, I am thy servant, —the son of thy handmaid: thou hast loosened my fetters.

17 לְֽךָ־אֶזְבַּח זֶבַח תּוֹדָה וּבְשֵׁם יְהוָה אֶקְרָֽא׃

Unto thee will I offer the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and on the name of the Lord will I call.

18 נְדָרַי לַיהוָה אֲשַׁלֵּם נֶגְדָה־נָּא לְכָל־עַמּֽוֹ׃

My vows will I pay unto the Lord, yea, in the presence of all his people,

19 בְּחַצְרוֹת ׀ בֵּית יְהוָה בְּֽתוֹכֵכִי יְֽרוּשָׁלִָם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃

In the courts of the house of the Lord, in thy midst, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah.
