For he has inclined his ear to me; And I will invoke him all my life.

The bonds of death surrounded me, and the pangs of the grave took hold of me; I was in distress and pain.

I will take up the cup of salvation, and call on the name of the LORD;
116.14
I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people.
116.15
It is precious in the sight of the Lord, The death of those who love it.
116.16
Hear me, O Lord! for I am your servant, your servant, the son of your handmaid. You untied my ties.
116.17
I will offer the sacrifice of peace offerings, and I will call on the name of the LORD;
116.18
I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people,
116.19
In the courts of the house of the Lord, In the midst of you, Jerusalem! Praise the Lord!
