Psalms 116
1 Alleluia. I am well pleased, because the Lord will listen to the voice of my supplication.
Alleluia. Dilexi, quoniam exaudiet Dominus vocem orationis meae.
2 Because he has inclined his ear to me, therefore will I call upon him while I live.
Quia inclinavit aurem suam mihi: et in diebus meis invocabo.
3 The pangs of death compassed me; the dangers of hell found me: I found affliction and sorrow. (Sheol h7585)
Circumdederunt me dolores mortis: et pericula inferni invenerunt me. Tribulationem et dolorem inveni: (Sheol h7585)
4 Then I called on the name of the Lord: O Lord, deliver my soul.
et nomen Domini invocavi. O Domine libera animam meam:
5 The Lord is merciful and righteous; yes, our God has pity.
misericors Dominus, et iustus, et Deus noster miseretur.
6 The Lord preserves the simple: I was brought low, and he delivered me.
Custodiens parvulos Dominus: humiliatus sum, et liberavit me.
7 Return to your rest, O my soul; for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.
Convertere anima mea in requiem tuam: quia Dominus benefecit tibi.
8 For he has delivered my soul from death, mine eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
Quia eripuit animam meam de morte: oculos meos a lacrymis, pedes meos a lapsu.
9 I shall be well-pleasing before the Lord in the land of the living.
Placebo Domino in regione vivorum.
10 Alleluia. I believed, therefore I have spoken: but I was greatly afflicted.
Alleluia. Credidi, propter quod locutus sum: ego autem humiliatus sum nimis.
11 And I said in mine amazement, Every man is a liar.
Ego dixi in excessu meo: Omnis homo mendax.
12 What shall I render to the Lord for all the things wherein he has rewarded me?
Quid retribuam Domino, pro omnibus, quae retribuit mihi?
13 I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.
Calicem salutaris accipiam: et nomen Domini invocabo.
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord, in the presence of all his people.
Vota mea Domino reddam coram omni populo eius:
15 Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
pretiosa in conspectu Domini mors Sanctorum eius:
16 O Lord, I am your servant; I am your servant, and the son of your handmaid: you have burst by bonds asunder.
O Domine quia ego servus tuus: ego servus tuus, et filius ancillae tuae. Dirupisti vincula mea:
17 I will offer to you the sacrifice of praise, and will call upon the name of the Lord.
tibi sacrificabo hostiam laudis, et nomen Domini invocabo.
18 I will pay my vows to the Lord, in the presence of all his people,
Vota mea Domino reddam in conspectu omnis populi eius:
19 in the courts of the Lord's house, in the midst of you, Jerusalem.
in atriis domus Domini, in medio tui Ierusalem.
