Psalms Chapter 116 (GNB)
1 I love the LORD, because he hears me; he listens to my prayers.
2 He listens to me every time I call to him.
3 The danger of death was all around me; the horrors of the grave closed in on me; I was filled with fear and anxiety.
4 Then I called to the LORD, "I beg you, LORD, save me!"
5 The LORD is merciful and good; our God is compassionate.
6 The LORD protects the helpless; when I was in danger, he saved me.
7 Be confident, my heart, because the LORD has been good to me.
8 The LORD saved me from death; he stopped my tears and kept me from defeat.
9 And so I walk in the presence of the LORD in the world of the living.
10 I kept on believing, even when I said, "I am completely crushed,"
11 even when I was afraid and said, "No one can be trusted."
12 What can I offer the LORD for all his goodness to me?
13 I will bring a wine offering to the LORD, to thank him for saving me.
14 In the assembly of all his people I will give him what I have promised.
15 How painful it is to the LORD when one of his people dies!
16 I am your servant, LORD; I serve you just as my mother did. You have saved me from death.
17 I will give you a sacrifice of thanksgiving and offer my prayer to you.
18 In the assembly of all your people, in the sanctuary of your Temple in Jerusalem, I will give you what I have promised. Praise the LORD!
