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)

7 Return to your rest,(L) my soul,
    for the Lord has been good(M) to you.

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]

Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death

116 I (A)love the Lord, because He has heard
My voice and my supplications.
2 Because He has inclined His ear to me,
Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.

3 (B)The [a]pains of death surrounded me,
And the [b]pangs of Sheol [c]laid hold of me;
I found trouble and sorrow.
4 Then I called upon the name of the Lord:
“O Lord, I implore You, deliver my soul!”

5 (C)Gracious is the Lord, and (D)righteous;
Yes, our God is merciful.
6 The Lord preserves the simple;
I was brought low, and He saved me.
7 Return to your (E)rest, O my soul,
For (F)the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

8 (G)For You have delivered my soul from death,
My eyes from tears,
And my feet from falling.
9 I will walk before the Lord
(H)In the land of the living.
10 (I)I believed, therefore I spoke,
“I am greatly afflicted.”
11 (J)I said in my haste,
(K)“All men are liars.”

12 What shall I render to the Lord
For all His benefits toward me?
13 I will take up the cup of salvation,
And call upon the name of the Lord.
14 (L)I will pay my vows to the Lord
Now in the presence of all His people.

15 (M)Precious in the sight of the Lord
Is the death of His saints.

16 O Lord, truly (N)I am Your servant;
I am Your servant, (O)the son of Your maidservant;
You have loosed my bonds.
17 I will offer to You (P)the sacrifice of thanksgiving,
And will call upon the name of the Lord.

18 I will pay my vows to the Lord
Now in the presence of all His people,
19 In the (Q)courts of the Lord’s house,
In the midst of you, O Jerusalem.

[d]Praise the Lord!

Salmo 116
Ang Pulong Sa Dios

Ang Dios Nagaluwas sa Tawo gikan Kamatayon

116 Gihigugma ko ang Ginoo,
kay gidungog niya ang akong pagpangayo ug tabang kaniya.
2 Tungod kay gipatalinghogan niya ako, dili ako moundang sa pagtawag kaniya samtang nagakinabuhi pa ako.

3 Nahadlok ako kay nabati ko nga morag hapit na akong mamatay;
ang kamatayon daw pisi nga naglambod kanako.
Nahasol gayod ako ug naguol,
4 busa nanawag ako sa Ginoo, “Ginoo, luwasa ako!”

5 Ang Ginoo nga atong Dios maloloy-on, matarong, ug may kahangawa.
6 Gipanalipdan niya ang mga walay alamag.
Sa dihang wala na gayod akoy mahimo, giluwas niya ako.

7 Karon makapahulay na ako ug magmalinawon tungod kay maayo kaayo ang Ginoo kanako,
8 ug tungod kay giluwas niya ako sa kamatayon, sa kasubo,[a] ug sa kalaglagan.[b]
9 Busa magkinabuhi ako nga duol sa Ginoo dinhi sa kalibotan sa mga buhi.
10 Mituo gihapon ako, bisan pa kon nakaingon ako, “Labihan gayod ang akong pag-antos.”
11 Sa akong kahadlok miingon ako,
“Wala gayoy tawo nga kasaligan.”
12 Unsay ibalos ko sa Ginoo sa tanan niyang kaayo kanako?
13 Mosimba ako sa Ginoo ug magdala ako ug halad sa pagpasalamat kaniya sa iyang pagluwas kanako.
14 Tumanon ko ang akong mga saad kaniya atubangan sa tanan niyang katawhan.

15 Masakitan ang Ginoo kon may mamatay sa iyang matinumanong katawhan.[c]

16 Ginoo, ubos mo ako nga alagad.[d]
Giluwas mo ako sa pagkabihag.
17 Mosimba ako ug mohalad ug halad sa pagpasalamat kanimo.
18 Tumanon ko ang akong mga saad kanimo atubangan sa tanan mong katawhan,
19 didto sa mga hawanan sa imong templo sa Jerusalem.

Dayega ang Ginoo!
