Psalm 116:1-4Common English Bible (CEB)Psalm 116
116 I love the Lord because he hears
my requests for mercy. 2 I’ll call out to him as long as I live, because he listens closely to me. 3 Death’s ropes bound me; the distress of the grave[a] found me— I came face-to-face with trouble and grief. 4 So I called on the Lord’s name: “Lord, please save me!”[b] Footnotes:

Psalm 116:12-17Common English Bible (CEB)
12 What can I give back to the Lord
for all the good things he has done for me? 13 I’ll lift up the cup of salvation. I’ll call on the Lord’s name. 14 I’ll keep the promises I made to the Lord in the presence of all God’s people. 15 The death of the Lord’s faithful is a costly loss in his eyes.
16 Oh yes, Lord, I am definitely your servant!
I am your servant and the son of your female servant— you’ve freed me from my chains. 17 So I’ll offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving to you, and I’ll call on the Lord’s name.
