CHAP. CXVI.
1 The Psalmist professeth his loue and duetie to God, for his deliuerance. 12 Hee studieth to be thankfull.
1 I loue the Lord: because hee hath heard my voice, & my supplications.
2 Because hee hath inclined his eare vnto mee: therefore will I call vpon him as long as I liue.2
3 The sorrowes of death compassed me, and the paines of hell gate hold vpon me: I found trouble and sorrow.3
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 I beleeued, therfore haue I spoken: I was greatly afflicted.10
11 I said in my haste: All men are lyers.11
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 þe sight of the Lord: is the death of his Saints.
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.
