Psalm 116
Douay-Rheims Bible

He Listens to My Voice

1{114:1}I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.

2{114:2}Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.

3{114:3}The sorrows of death have compassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:

4{114:4}And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.

5{114:5}The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.

6{114:6}The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was humbled, and he delivered me.

7{114:7}Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.

8{114:8}For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.

9{114:9}I will please the Lord in the land of the living.

10{115:1}I have believed, therefore have I spoken; but I have been humbled exceedingly.

11{115:2}I said in my excess: Every man is a liar.

12{115:3}What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things that he hath rendered to me?

13{115:4}I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord.

14{115:5}I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:

15{115:6}Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

16{115:7}O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:

17{115:8}I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.

18{115:9}I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:

19{115:10}In the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.
