Psalms 116
116
I’m Saved
1I am passionately in love with God because he listens to me.
He hears my prayers and answers them.
2As long as I live I’ll keep praying to him,
for he stoops down to listen to my heart’s cry.
3Death once stared me in the face,
and I was close to slipping into its dark shadows.
I was terrified and overcome with sorrow.
4I cried out to the Lord, “God, come and save me!”
5He was so kind, so gracious to me.
Because of his passion toward me,
he made everything right and he restored me.
6So I’ve learned from my experience
that God protects the vulnerable.
For I was broken and brought low,
but he answered me and came to my rescue!
7Now I can say to myself and to all,
“Relax and rest, be confident and serene,
for the Lord rewards fully those who simply trust in him.”
8God has rescued my soul from death’s fear
and dried my eyes of many tears.
He’s kept my feet firmly on his path
9and strengthened me so that I may please him # 116:9 As translated from the Septuagint.
and walk before Yahweh in his fields of life.
10-11Even when it seems I’m surrounded
by many liars and my own fears,
and though I’m hurting in my suffering and trauma,
I still stay faithful to God and speak words of faith.
12So now, what can I ever give back to God
to repay him for the blessings he’s poured out on me?
13I will lift up his cup of salvation and praise him extravagantly
for all that he’s done for me.
14I will fulfill the promise I made to God
in the presence of his gathered people.
15When one of God’s holy lovers dies,
it is costly to the Lord, touching his heart.
16Lord, because I am your loving servant,
you have broken open my life and freed me from my chains.
17Now I’ll worship you passionately and bring to you
my sacrifice of praise, drenched with thanksgiving!
18I’ll keep my promise to you, God,
in the presence of your gathered people, just like I said I would.
19I will worship you here in your living presence,
in the temple in Jerusalem.
I will worship and sing hallelujah, for I praise you, Lord!

Lift Up the Cup of Salvation
1I love Adonai, for He hears my voice, my cries.
2Because He has turned His ear to me, I will call on Him all my days.
3The ropes of death entangled me, and the torments of Sheol found me. I found trouble and sorrow.
4Then I called upon the Name of Adonai: “Adonai, save my soul!”
5Adonai is gracious and righteous— yes, our God is compassionate.
6Adonai protects the simple-hearted. When I was brought low, He saved me.
7Return to your rest, my soul, for Adonai has been good to you.
8For You delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
9I will walk before Adonai in the lands of the living.
10I trusted even when I said, “I am very afflicted”—
11even when I said in my haste, “All men are liars.”
12How can I repay Adonai for all His bounties to me?
13I will lift up the cup of salvation, and call on the Name of Adonai.
14I will fulfill my vows to Adonai in the presence of all His people.
15Precious in the sight of Adonai is the death of His kedoshim.
16O Adonai! Surely I am Your servant. I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant. You have freed me from my bonds.
17To You I will offer a sacrifice of praise, and will call on the Name of Adonai.
18I will fulfill my vows to Adonai in the presence of all His people,
19in the courts of the House of Adonai, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Halleluyah!
