Psalms 116

1I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voice and my supplications.

1O Praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.

2Because he hath inclined his ear unto me, therefore will I call upon him as long as I live.

2For his mercy is confirmed upon us: and the truth of the Lord remaineth for ever.

3The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow.
