CXVI P S A L. CXVI.

1 The Psalmist professeth his loue and duetie to God, for his deliuerance. 12 Hee studieth to be thankfull.

CXVI ¶ I loue the LORD: because hee hath heard my voice, & my supplications.2 [fn]Because hee hath inclined his eare vnto mee: therefore will I call vpon him as long as I liue.3 [ref][fn]The sorrowes of death compassed me, and the paines of hell gate hold vpon me: I found trouble and sorrow.4 Then called I vpon the Name of the LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee deliuer my soule.5 Gracious is the LORD, and righteous: yea our God is mercifull.6 The LORD preserueth the simple: I was brought low, and hee helped me.7 Returne vnto thy rest, O my soule: for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.8 For thou hast deliuered my soule from death, mine eyes from teares, and my feete from falling.9 I wil walke before the LORD: in the land of the liuing.10 [ref]I beleeued, therfore haue I spoken: I was greatly afflicted.11 [ref]I said in my haste: All men are lyers.12 What shall I render vnto the LORD: for all his benefits towards mee?13 I will take the cup of saluation: and call vpon the Name of the LORD.14 I will pay my vowes vnto the LORD: now in the presence of all his people.15 Precious in y^e sight of the LORD: is the death of his Saints.16 Oh LORD, truely I am thy seruant, I am thy seruant, and the sonne of thy handmayde: thou hast loosed my bonds.17 I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thankes-giuing: and will call vpon the Name of the LORD.18 I will pay my vowes vnto the LORD: now in the presence of all his people:19 In the Courts of the LORDs house, in the middes of thee, O Ierusalem. Praise ye the LORD.
