TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

Ps 116 This hymn of thanksgiving rejoices in God’s character and in rescue from death (116:1-11). It gives an assurance of God’s protection in life and reminds the godly that the Lord watches over them even at death. The psalmist commits to living as God’s servant and resolves to honor him publicly (116:12-19).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

Precious in the sight of Yahweh is the death of his faithful ones

(Some words not found in UHB: precious in/on=both_eyes_of YHWH the,death, of,faithful,his )

The word “Precious” here does not imply that Yahweh values the death of his saints, but that the death of his saints is costly to him and grieves him. Here sight represents judgment or evaluation. Alternate translation: “Yahweh considers the death of his saints to be a costly thing” (See also: figs-metaphor)
