Psalm 116
International Standard Version
God, My Deliverer
116 I love the Lord
because he has heard my prayer for mercy;[a]
2 for he listens to me whenever I call.
3 The ropes of death were wound around me
and the anguish of Sheol[b] came upon me;
I encountered distress and sorrow.
4 Then I called on the name of the Lord,
“Lord, please deliver me!”[c]
5 The Lord is gracious and righteous;
our God is compassionate;
6 the Lord watches over the innocent;[d]
I was brought low, and he delivered me.
7 Return to your resting place, my soul,
for the Lord treated you generously.
8 Indeed, you delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from crying,[e]
and my feet from stumbling.
9 I will walk in the Lord’s presence
in the lands of the living.
10 I will continue to believe, even when I say,
“I am greatly afflicted”
11 and speak hastily,
“All people are liars!”
12 What will I return to the Lord
for all his benefits to me?
13 I will raise my cup of deliverance
and invoke the Lord’s name.
14 I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people.
15 In the sight of the Lord,
the death of his faithful ones is valued.
16 Lord, I am indeed your servant.
I am your servant.
I am the son of your handmaid.
You have released my bonds.
17 I will bring you a thanksgiving offering
and call on the name of the Lord!
18 I will fulfill my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people,
19 in the courts of the Lord’s house,
in your midst, Jerusalem.
Hallelujah!

116 Aking iniibig ang Panginoon, sapagka't kaniyang dininig ang aking tinig at aking mga hiling.
2 Sapagka't kaniyang ikiniling ang kaniyang pakinig sa akin, kaya't ako'y tatawag sa kaniya habang ako'y nabubuhay.
3 Ang tali ng kamatayan ay pumulupot sa akin, at ang mga sakit ng Sheol ay nagsihawak sa akin: aking nasumpungan ang kabagabagan at kapanglawan.
4 Nang magkagayo'y tumawag ako sa pangalan ng Panginoon; Oh Panginoon, isinasamo ko sa iyo, iligtas mo ang aking kaluluwa.
5 Mapagbiyaya ang Panginoon, at matuwid; Oo, ang Dios namin ay maawain.
6 Pinalalagi ng Panginoon ang mga tapat na loob: ako'y nababa, at kaniyang iniligtas ako.
7 Bumalik ka sa iyong kapahingahan, Oh kaluluwa ko; sapagka't ginawan ka ng mabuti ng Panginoon.
8 Sapagka't iyong iniligtas ang kaluluwa ko sa kamatayan, at ang mga mata ko sa mga luha, at ang mga paa ko sa pagkabuwal.
9 Ako'y lalakad sa harap ng Panginoon, sa lupain ng mga buhay.
10 Ako'y sumasampalataya, sapagka't ako'y magsasalita: ako'y lubhang nagdalamhati:
11 Aking sinabi sa aking pagmamadali, lahat ng tao ay bulaan.
12 Ano ang aking ibabayad sa Panginoon dahil sa lahat niyang kabutihan sa akin?
13 Aking kukunin ang saro ng kaligtasan, at tatawag ako sa pangalan ng Panginoon.
14 Aking babayaran ang mga panata ko sa Panginoon, Oo, sa harapan ng buo niyang bayan.
15 Mahalaga sa paningin ng Panginoon ang kamatayan ng kaniyang mga banal.
16 Oh Panginoon, tunay na ako'y iyong lingkod; ako'y iyong lingkod, na anak ng iyong lingkod na babae; iyong kinalag ang aking mga tali.
17 Aking ihahandog sa iyo ang hain na pasalamat, at tatawag ako sa pangalan ng Panginoon.
18 Aking babayaran ang mga panata ko sa Panginoon, Oo, sa harapan ng buo niyang bayan;
19 Sa mga looban ng bahay ng Panginoon, sa gitna mo, Oh Jerusalem. Purihin ninyo ang Panginoon.
Psalm 116
New International Version
Psalm 116
1 I love the Lord,(A) for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry(B) for mercy.(C)
2 Because he turned his ear(D) to me,
I will call on him as long as I live.
3 The cords of death(E) entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came over me;
I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
4 Then I called on the name(F) of the Lord:
“Lord, save me!(G)”
5 The Lord is gracious and righteous;(H)
our God is full of compassion.(I)
6 The Lord protects the unwary;
when I was brought low,(J) he saved me.(K)
8 For you, Lord, have delivered me(N) from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,
9 that I may walk before the Lord(O)
in the land of the living.(P)
10 I trusted(Q) in the Lord when I said,
“I am greatly afflicted”;(R)
11 in my alarm I said,
“Everyone is a liar.”(S)
12 What shall I return to the Lord
for all his goodness(T) to me?
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call on the name(U) of the Lord.
14 I will fulfill my vows(V) to the Lord
in the presence of all his people.
15 Precious in the sight(W) of the Lord
is the death of his faithful servants.(X)
16 Truly I am your servant, Lord;(Y)
I serve you just as my mother did;(Z)
you have freed me from my chains.(AA)
17 I will sacrifice a thank offering(AB) to you
and call on the name of the Lord.
18 I will fulfill my vows(AC) to the Lord
in the presence of all his people,
19 in the courts(AD) of the house of the Lord—
in your midst, Jerusalem.(AE)
Praise the Lord.[a]
